    The thing is, JB isn't quite good enough is he? And he has a ridiculous name.

    Sorry, I keep forgetting they're all as good as each other but the one with the best car wins. :)

    Button is an excellent driver (in my opinion) but often his loyalty to a team has let him down, he wasted too many years trying to get Honda to the front.

    i'm sure that being a gent even if he gets binned tomorrow he'll still not badmouth mclaren.

    Nothing to do with wanting an other drive, as it don't look good badmouthinh previous employers.

    As Zed says he ain't that good anymore or does like a true Brit and go for the underdog.

    But then I can only go on what I see on race day as I don't follow the numbers/stats.

    he has delivered the best out of the car he has been given, beating his teammate all season and providing the majority of points that allowed mclaren to finish where they did.

    i doubt korea will go ahead 21 races is insane in my opinion, i know a few of the pundits were moaning on my twitter feed.
     
  14. I think button has looked in decidedly low spirits in most of the post race interviews I have seen this year. The problem is, if he loses his seat at mclaren, he can only really end up in a worse car or out. I doubt he will have the patience to noodle around the back of the field in a caterham or a murussia.


    How the 2015 grid is shaping up:

    MERCEDES Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg

    RED BULL Daniel Ricciardo and Daniil Kvyat

    FERRARI Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen

    WILLIAMS Valtteri Bottas and Felipe Massa

    McLAREN TBC <<< here?

    FORCE INDIA Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez

    TORO ROSSO Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz

    LOTUS Romain Grosjean and Pastor Maldonado

    SAUBER Marcus Ericsson and Felipe Nasr

    MARUSSIA (ENTERED AS MANOR F1 TEAM) TBC <<< here?

    CATERHAM TBC <<< here?

    so the mclaren meeting ended with no desision yet........... which i suppose is positive for button - at least they weren't lying about not knowing, i honestly expected him to go today.
     
  17. There's a bit in auto sport this week explaining why car manufacturers would be stupid to enter f1 but should go down the sports car route if they want to enter world Motorsport.
