I still tell you... its all a matter of who's winning in the 1-2's. If it had been Button, Lewis would have been making some deal out of it. They may have respect ofr eachother, they may both be genuine... but if Button had gotten a better strategy (or better Q) in Canada and beat him... or if jenson had held on to win Turkey... how about that little engine issue wi/ jenson in Monaco? there would certainly be some venom.
But right now, the best driver pairing on the grid... on and off the track. There you have a good point
a few more races to go though... so let's see.
There's a lot of updates though... by everyone. But Red Bull should be the best in Valencia, Mclaren will prob do better than they did in Monaco.
I dont think anyone's stated here that hes an "infalible God". Everyone makes mistakes and no doubt Lewis will make more. But he and jenson respect each other. They are both genuine. Not to say they wont question things or that there wont be misunderstandings. Ive heard Lewis question situations and Ive heard Jenson when he's not happy too. Best driver pairing on the grid tho, on and off the track.

Bit too soon to predict a golden age per say. They were completely outclassed by Redbull in Turkey on pace, Redbull were 1-2 until a brain fade by both drivers.
Canada is a circuit tailormade for this years McLaren chassis. I expect McLaren to be 2nd best in Valencia as that is a glorified (spelled: dead boring) Monaco which should suit the Redbull's and Ferraris more. McLaren has a 'longer' chassis this year than the other 2 which is a bit of a disadvantage in tight/twisty circuits. I believe the drivers make a difference for them, as Ferrari have Massa (he's at 70% of himself since the accident) and Redbull has Vettel (wins from the front).

Came out fighting indeed.
