[I see your point of course, you being the poster girl for impartiality. I will certainly reexamine my thinking. So after this year, after driving a car basically as bad as button has had when in Honda....and after Button has been given a car as good as Hamilton had in 2007 and 2008....do we compare number of wins to determine which is better or should we count up how many times each took a really good car and stuffed it into a parked car in pit lane? Ran over a car on the straight? Parked it off the pit lane gravel trap? Hit the pit lane speed limiter on accident? I'm just wondering when Button is going to make Lewis level mistakes and cost his team the championship...and when he does, if you will give him the same benefit of the doubt you give Lewis? Only asking so that I can get a better understanding of this blinkered thinking you speak of.


You're missing some vital points here (but thats to be expected)
Yes Lewis made errors, he was a rookie, he had a double world champion to contend with for one year, he had competitive ferraris with good drivers in them both years. He did NOT have the car that was easily the class of the field. STILL managed a championship though.

Lewis in his poor car is still punching above the cars weight and comprehensively beating his teammate. What did Button do last year at Honda-oh he got beaten by his team mate and never looked anything.
Take the blinkers off Bill!!


Heikki was faster in Australia (quali), Monaco (quali), China (race) and has been faster in Turkey (quali) sofar, so where do you get "comprehensively"?

Say, anyone know who is running KERS? Ferrari might get in amongst them at the start... what about BMW?

Hamilton had a failure in Australia. Crash in Monaco and erratic but fast China race....

Look at the points scores. Monaco Quali Lewis was only in first quali so hardly comparable.
#124181
Did anybody hear Jake Humprey call Hermann Tilke "legendary"??! :rofl:

And will Fisichella go for the quadruple today? :twisted:
#124190
No quadruple for Fisi, but he did become the first retirement today.

Bad luck yet again for Williams just as they were about to walk off with a shed load of points, particularly as Kazuki drove a very good race today. Still, those new upgrades have put them ahead of Ferrari and very comfortably ahead of Alonso's Renault.

Race was not as good as I hoped, but the midfield battles, Hamilton's struggles and Barrichello going crazy were very entertaining.
