No wonder that the "Live" program is no longer Live on Speed Channel, and will be re-boardcasted 21 hours later.

I cant stand the race on Fox. Christ, they had a commercial just as they lined up for the start That and about every 3 min they had a 1 min commercial. I cant wait for the next 3 races to be over and back on speed

Here in Germany they have short maybe 20 second commercials every 5-8 minutes, allows you to actually watch the race. Yet another good performance from Button.

Poor Barrichello. Even though Ross Brawn promised him there was no team order, isn't it coincidence that mechanical problems always manifested on Barrichello's car and never on Button's car ?

He's probably used to it by now.

Button's results are simply incredible this year.

The statistics are amazing

Button
2000-2008 1 win in 153 starts (0.6% win ratio)
2009 6 wins in 7 races (85.7% win ratio)

None the less he came in 3rd championship in 2004 with BAR with alot of podium's.

2009 is great payback for sticking with the BAR/Honda/Brawn

Only four times in history have someone won 6 of the first 7 races:

1965 - Jim Clark in the Lotus
1994 - Michael Schumacher in the Benetton
2004 - Michael Schumacher in the Ferrari
2009 - Jenson Button in the Brawn

That's a pretty exclusive list.

Yeah, not even Prost is in that list.

Although IMO Button will not be same league as Schumacher/Senna/Prost/Stewart/Clark/... in the long term.
