What simulations do is point to where there is potential... data gathered at the track is for refinement. You need both.

Yep. And, if you have better sims, then you need less track data for refinement, IMO it's significant.

A few years is too little time for a decision mate.

Id say the consensus at the moment is that there is no conspiracy but there is favouritism.

I don't think it's even favouritism, it's just the way Lewis operates can be less effective than Button's which is why Button can come out on top sometimes.

I still think it's paranoia, scapegoating for Hamilton's problems and reading stupid things that aren't there into irrelevant pieces of journalism. Simples!

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

Apparantly

Though thats about the view I started from. Ive yet to see any evidence that either moves me towards a conspiracy or away from favouritism.

The consensus is that there is no conspiracy and no favouritism. There is however, the endless quest for excuses when things go wrong.
