Legitimate and reasonable "excuses" are often perfectly evident to those familiar with the sport... as is the difference between a brilliant driver and a driver in a faster car than anyone else.

Ferrari spent 2008 nearly winning both championships, while in 2008 Ross Brawn spent about $400 million of Honda's dollars on a developing his 2009 car while also losing worse than anybody but Force India. If you don't recall, Honda spent just about as much money on F1 in '08 as Ferrari. But to win, they had to get twice as much time and money to develop their '09 car as anybody else, AND take advantage of a massive rule change. More evidence why rapid rule changes make F1 more boring.
For those who think that Jensen Button suddenly started winning races out of sheer skill, this is how race car development has always worked, and Ross Brawn just played his cards right and happened upon a good bit of luck to carry him through.
