I tend to find it hard to believe, given equal cars, JB will out drive LH.

That's too far for them to travel. Priceline would not accept their name your own price. Damn you William Shatner, damn you and the budget cuts.

ok so we now have two races under our collective belt since the break.

The mighty Brawn-y towel seems to be looking a little soggy.
and can anybody tell me why Master Button seems to be struggling so badly as Rubens excels?

^^ Cant seem to get the heat in the tires. He is a fair weather driver. Look for him to do better at the tracks that have warmer temps. His smooth style does not lend itself very well to generating heat in the tires which is why he does not seem to be making an impression in qualifying, but midway through the race, he starts setting fast laps.

i don't know guys...i'm a Jenson fan, but the way he's been going, i'm starting to think he's going to piss away his lead and possibly loose the title at the last minute.
