Correct, Jenson will be world champion in 7 laps time

Well done Jenson, back to back English world champions as well

Big well done for Jenson. He's tailed off but nobody could touch him at the start of the year!

Would you like your Ferrari Finn medium or rare?

Congratulations Jensen. Brilliant start to the season. Who'd have thought this time last year that Button would be World Champ this year. Once again Brawn works his magic in the Championship.





Seb Vettel needs applauding too, he's had a cracking season and will only get better.

Congrats to Button. At least he had a go today, and worked his way up the field. He won more races than Hamilton did last year, but it still seems a bit of an anti-climax somehow.

Flambé.

Well deserved Jenson.

If McLaren can eradicate the problems from earlier in the season, this could be a dream team partnership if it happens.

Fair play to Button but I think he had no Real competiton and thats what makes a Champion even Schumacer had competition in his championships Hill, Villeneuve, and Hakkinen, to name 3

but I just dont picture Button as a champion Driver......
6 years and 113 races without a win can usually tell a tale....

in the same way if Robbie Savage went to Man United and Won the League and cup double and was crowned player of the Year it would just seem "odd"...

No real competition?

You mean apart from his team-mate and the two Red Bull drivers?

"Real" competition isnt from a bloke that took 7 years to get his first win in Mark weber
and Hamilton being the exception Rookies like Vettel dont challenge for titles he may have finished 2nd but he never put Button under pressure.......

and Rubens Barrichello should be british he's always the runner up isnt he......

would you fancy Button for the title next year if he stays at Brawn?because Mclaren wont get caught with their pants down again and Ferrari will have Alonso.... so when world champions are competing against him and breathing down his neck every step of the way lets see...

Toyota have pulled out of next year's F1 due to "financial reasons". I can see a smug Moseley going "told you so" now, althougth the FIA are checking the legality of the pull out.

thats his world title defence hopes buggered then, Hamilton will wazz all over him when they have the same car.

Well either way, it certainly makes things interesting. Wonder if McLaren will stick with the equal treatment to both drivers and let them race each other?

I think they will do.

Took Button 5 or 6 didn't it?



They've always claimed they will.

I'm half wondering if there will be a repeat of the Prost/Senna antics.

I'd be surprised - I don't think either Button or Hamilton has quite the ego that Prost and Senna had in their prime.

Oh great.

The same points system as MotoGP near enough. The double diffuser is to do with what Brawn GP did last year I think even though it was legal.
