The same can be said for the Redbull and Ferrari guys. Webber is going to be hard pressed to beat Vettel this year in qualifying, and Massa...well, its in the contract.

Personally i think the faster the car gets the more the gap will open between Lewis and Jenson.

...............

I think the opposite, in a car that's working well I reckon it could be close and it's when the car's not behaving itself that Lewis can take the advantage.

I think this car is behaving, they both like how it handles. It just isnt going fast enough. I think Lewis will benefit as the car changes through the different stints in the race.

Yep, it looked pretty good in Australia and if that keeps up I can see it being close between the two of them over the season.

In hard pressing conditions I honestly believe JB will come alive, give it 4 races os so..But in the mean time I predicted a long time ago, Hamilton will be the 2011 WDC. He's ready, He got his last one through luck and a great car plus his immense talent. He has had some mega hard years of bad luck and a huge learning curve, given this? he is ready to put all the knowledge, his WDC & success to this year. He will win the next round with Jb 3rd.

We all talk about the tyre conserving and amazing smooth driving, it doesn't have to be shown? Look @ his amazing wins last season. It will be shown this year and he doesn't need to be aggressive, I think his fighting in OZ was perfect. Just wish he didn't get the Ol' Stop n' Go....

Jenson was very selfish for letting Vettel through in Melbourne. It also showed immaturity and I think he should be thoroughly punished before the next race begins.

to be fair... another on track battle would have toasted his new set of tires and seriously compromised his own race. Besides, Vettel took him on a really difficult spot, on an arguable move (maybe not punishable, but arguable at least)...... far from being let through.

Compromised his race? Button's race was long over 6th place it was and no better.

That was a win in the bag for Mclaren! Button should have pulled a Massa on Vettel, stalling him long enough for Hamilton to take the lead.

Sigh.. Sometimes I wish Mclaren didn't practice this equality crap.. Anyway, hope Mclaren can 1-2 on the grid in Bad-Asia.

But can it? Webber was dominated in the first two rounds of 2010, by the third round hed already beaten Vettel to pole.........

I dont see how this year im terms of car performance is pretty much around the same as last year, and suddenly from getting about 6 poles in 2010, webbers going to be dominated by Vettel? Its just stupid thinking. Especially the " He'll be faster now hes a WDC" rubbish. When has that EVER happened before. The only thing that changes is consistency, unless your Hamilton, who still makes 2007/8 esque mistakes. Youve always got the speed from race 1, its how rookies get noticed and signed to bigger teams. Im willing to post a picture of me eating my own hat if Webber doesnt get at least 3 poles this year.

Webber is amazing, His race in Monaco and Silverstone was the races in which I personally gained amazing respect for. But personally he's a twat who is attention seeking. Seb is a great team player and deserves the things in which he has gained, in the last round he was calm and collected. Bloody ell that's why my misses supports him because he's fair.


Back to JB v LH. Lewis will be dominant in the garage until JB gets to grips with a few things...

Whoa. Excuse me mate, you dont get to determine whats stupid or not, we're here in a forum with opinions. If I feel Vettel will be stronger after getting the WDC boulder off his back, thats my opinion and Im dead sure I'm not alone in this.

You seem to think you're a know-it-all around here with your input on what to discuss/what not and whats stupid/intelligent thinking? I'd say, take it easy, and respect others discussions and opinions a little more alright Sparky? Otherwise people are just going to look at you as a pest.

And honestly, I dont really look forward to seeing what you look like, hat-eating or not.

Again, I think Vettel will beat WEbber harder than he did last year. You can think Webber is going to dominate Vettel from now onwards, or whatever, and I shall respect that. I expect the same from your side. Thank you very much.

Everyone has an opinion; which is as valid as anyone elses; please respect that opinion even if you don't agree! Present your view and move on...

How did we get onto Vettel & Webber; this thread is supposed to be about Jenson & Lewis!

[zurich_allan]

I think it's going to be very interesting to see how things develop with the car this year. From what I see, it seems that Lewis has great ability to squeeze the maximum possible from an underperforming car, whereas Jenson is extremely fast when the car is just right... Logically, I'd say then that the better the car gets, the closer the performance will be between Lewis and Jenson, whereas the worse the car is, the bigger the likely gap in favour of Lewis...

Of course it's too early to say how good the McLaren really is or isn't - but I think we'll know by circa race 4 or 5 how it looks to be panning out.

This post is pathetic.

I answered your first one with " but can it?"

and followed it up with " i just cant see how....."

Where the utter crumpet did you work out from that, that im telling you your wrong. I didnt tell you anything, i proposed a counter-argument and you act like a spoilt little girl.

All i did was propose a counter argumentm you know, a differing viewpoint. You should of used your quote button to come up with a counter-counter argument, and so on. But you decided you didnt like that i dont agree with you. Maybe i shouldnt have said stupid thinking, for that i do apologise. But forming that opinion of yours based on ONE race. That does seem awful fickle to me.

[texasmr2]

Is this still the off-season because I vaguely remember watching a race last weekend ?!?!?!

[myownalias]

One more word from either of you [FRAFPDD and Hammer278] on your personal issues you seem to have with each other and warnings will be dished out!
