The boy did well.
A Mclaren 1 2 would have been even better. :y
I LOVE damp races. The real drivers shine out. There were some impressive drives too.

Apart from the poofters driving and the poofters running the sport don't....

break me, that was one of the best races yet, despite the 2 hour "interlude"! :y Had us on the edges of our seats for the last half hour. Good to see that Vettel is susceptible to a bit of pressure after all, and JB proves yet again what a class driver he really is, particularly in damp conditions. People who were writing Button off since the arrival of Hamilton might just have to think again. ::) This season just continue's to impress in terms of racing action and drama thanks to the change in regs and with Pirelli tyres. :y

Agreed.....On two wheels in the pissing rain at Silverstone. But they are men and take it as it comes.... :y

it was a great race, Button showed he is one of the best..

I disagree. I would prefer to say he has the potential to be one of the best if he had any desire to win...

So after visiting the pits 6 times in once race and being plum last, he suddenly had a desire to win the race?
Ok..

The guy is talented. No doubt. But that talent is rarely realised, as he is always happy to sit behind another driver, lap after lap after lap. He is too cautious. Maybe Hamilton isn't cautious enough, but Button is too much of a pussy.
I suspect, dead last, he did decide to throw caution to the wind. Once he got the confidence, look at him go :y
In his long career in F1, this is only the 2nd race where I've been impressed with his performance. Look how long it took him to get a win. His F1 WC year was only won due to the Brawn being so very much better than everything else in the first half of that season.
The other person who really impressed me yesterday was Schumacher, though nobody can deny his talents. Love him or hate him (and there is no in between it seems), he has a raw talent that others lack, and is always exciting to watch.
Shame Di Resta broke down, as he was goign well at one point.
-
I hoped to see schumi take to the podium yesterday,he drove well and I ain't his biggest fan but credit where credits due :y
-
:y have to agree excellent result, despite the circumstances :y
-
While some of us agree to disagree on the merits of Button, Schumi etc., no one has mentioned the driver that's really outstanding at the moment - current world champion Vettel. He may have been a little raw at first and I know he now has the best car on the grid, but he's now driving like a real master (remind you of anyone? ::)). Love or hate him, the guy has genuine talent and desire. :y

No doubting the talent,just needs to stop spitting his dummy out when things aren't going his way :D

"Brilliant Button"......
......I expected yet another Facebook addition! ;D

Indeed, he continuously outshines Webber, very talented driver. Spoilt brat, but talented ;D

The "Like Button" always seems so tame and understating! ;D

I agree with Banjax (better go and lie down in a darkened room !!) hes fine while he has an advantage and is out in front away from everyone else, but put him under pressure and he cracks like a newly laid egg. He s a long way from the finished article imo.
Hamilton has been having talks with Red Bull recently. It would be interesting to see how the two compare in the same car. ;)

just watched the highlights - i still dont believe Button won....and i sat through the whole thing Sunday, he was last place on the wrong tyres on lap 41........its actually better than you think as every car he passed he was on a wet track off the racing line on slicks :o :o

His pass of Webber took him onto the very wet side of start/finish straight complete with plumes of spray,god knows how he kept it straight :o

He also had to use opposite lock at very high speed when he had his brush with Hamilton. That was a very good catch in my view.

Come on Albs, what have you been watching for the last 2 years??? ::) Vettel may have had his share of racing accidents but rarely cracks under pressure from behind. The Canadian GP is the first time for a long time that's happened. There have been a number of GP's where he has been pushed while leading the race and has driven faultlessly. Don't get me wrong, I'm not particularly a Vettel fan but I do appreciate his skill in an F1 car.

nah, I'm with Albs on this - witness his near meltdown when Webber was challenging him strongly last season - couldn't handle being passed and behaved, on numerous occasions like a spoilt kid making rash lunges and dangerous blocks....he has matured since winning the WDC but hes still prone to getting panicked into mistakes - usually hes so far ahead it doesnt matter tho ;)

Sure, he's cracked when he's not been leading and he's had to fight through the field, but rarely when he's out in front leading the grand prix. Stone me, I've seen many top drivers cock up in similar situations. As I said, I'm not a Vettel fan but I do think he's a fantastic driver and maturing very nicely for someone so young.
