@AndrewWe know that. Otherwise we'd have Hamilton as world Champion this year instead of Vettel.

Heres some stats that expand on the 2:1 stat:

2010 Season

Button - Wins: 2
Hamilton - Wins: 3
Button - Podiums: 5
Hamilton - podiums: 6
Button - Total Pts: 214
Hamilton - Total Pts: 240

2011 Season

Button - Wins: 3
Hamilton - Wins: 3
Button - Podiums: 9
Hamilton - podiums: 3
Button - Total Pts: 270
Hamilton - Total Pts: 227

2012 Season

Button - Wins: 3
Hamilton - Wins: 4
Button - Podiums: 3
Hamilton - podiums: 3
Button - Total Pts: 188
Hamilton - Total Pts: 190

I would say that they were fairly even over the course of the three season, going by the cold hard facts!

Where on Earth did you get 12 podiums for 2011? did you include wins? they are not included in podiums, wins have a separate columns !

[What's Burning?]

So out of the 12 measurements, Lewis comes out on top 8 to 4 and factoring in Lewis DNF's while leading a GP this just in the last six races this year, it would have been 12 to zero.

Yeah, I'd say they're about even.

[Jabberwocky]

Maybe Hamilton should not be so rough on his cars that he breaks them then!

[racechick]

You have evidence that Hamilton's driving is responsible for the Dnf's? Is he also somehow responsible for the bodged pitstops, the underfuelling and the rookie crash kids?
I guess he must be.

[Nin-Chin]

In total,(Podiums include wins)

Button - Podiums - 25
Hamilton - Podiums - 22
Button - Wins - 8
Hamilton - Wins - 10

Mind you Lewis lost 3(potentially 4)wins this season.

I'm sorry, am I missing something. Are people actually trying to use statistics to say Button is a better driver than Lewis?

[Nin-Chin]

Button may have better stats but Hamilton has no luck,Spain 2010 a classic example

[Nin-Chin]

Nice battle here!

Looking at the total points scores they're pretty much equal. There's not a lot in it. Can't be many more driver pairings that close.

This thread remains as ridiculous as ever it seems...
