I thought one of the commentators had an interesting suggestion. Install sprinkler systems on all the circuits so even if it isn't raining the race can be made wet and therefore more exciting.

Which perhaps says something about the differences between the two of them and the difference in the way they work with the team.

You can imagine Hamilton having a "I'll do the driving, you take care of the car" attitude whereas Button works more with the team and his engineer, and ultimately they trust each other more.
"How can this car be so bad?" J Button, sometime during 2009...

Just read this thread - makes me feel even worse for spoiling it for you LG!!

Apologies again. Thanks again for the shakedown on the Ricky run - if we get the opportunity of a track day would love to get a passenger ride - in the S and / or the Evora.

Back OT - really pleased to see honours even at McLaren and hope they will remain so for the season - though of course that could help a rival if they are splitting the points....

I didn't feel it was fair the way so many rounded on JB towards the end of the season so good on him.

I am organising an airfield day:

You're very welcome to attend as a spectator. I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of pax rides on offer if you do decide to attend.
