McLaren wrote:Great stats by the way :hehe:

Again looking at the poles in a season.I hardly think it's that impressive to have 11/14 poles when your in a car that much better than everyone else ,with a no hoper like Webber as a team mate.Don't get me wrong I'm not one questioning is Seb a great driver ,but i do think this is one of the weaker records on his list.

Most records are void to me as people have said before sometimes there were only 6 races in a season, let alone 16 lately and nie on 20 now.
He has sometimes been on pole by less than a tenth over Hamilton. Is it really that much better? :rolleyes:

I will put that down to a bad lap from Seb then :wink:

The car is dominant. Get over it.
Singapore is very adequate to the red Bull's characteristics. Their average advantage is well short of 1 second.

Button needs to win every single race and Vettels needs to not score anything for the remaining races. Won't happen thankfully. Vettel deserves it again this year. :clap:

Unless Webber surprises himself by getting a good start and crashes into Vettel, taking him out and Button wins!... :):P

I was only pointing out that a probable record is still possible should Button win the championship. I don't think that there's any more chance of that happening than there is of Tony Blair deciding to stop avoiding tax for the good of the British people.

True, but then i would have also had to include Vettel being the youngest two-time world champion, since he technically isn't yet, but I reckoned it was enough of a read already that I could exclude those.

And even then...winning the rest of the races? Seb can break both his legs tomorrow and still put the trophy in his cabinet and lock it. :hehe:

Imagine the old days when you could get 1 point for qualifying on pole.

Seb could be celebrating the title on a Saturday, and replace the drinking water in his car with champagne, and then celebrate ANOTHER record of being the most intoxicated driver to win a GP! :drink:

Just a childish fantasy to keep me slightly amused. :thumbup:
