Default Well done Mr Button

Fair play - didn't think the lad had it in him, but a good effort today securing the WORLD DRIVERS CHAMPIONSHIP 2009.

he did his best to lose it, but I think Ross Brawn had laced his car and race suit with lucky charms!!

Almost had a tear in my eye as he came across the line.

Great race, and really liked how Ross Brawn paid tribute to the 200 odd people who lost their jobs when the team had to streamline down at start of season in post race interview.

Well done jenson good season. Bad luck rubbens did has been second best to so many world champions. He does deserve one of his own.

Also well done to the un sung hero of the day webber getting the job done.

Indeed. I was plannng to watch the highlights tonight, but don't think I'll bother now. Is Jenson a member of this forum so that he can read all these reply's? Don't think so.

Can I suggest in future that the thread title be a warning of the evening spoiler.... ie do not read if you've not seen the race!

It was a good race, I thought.
Didn't think Jenson deserved it after the last few races, as he didn't seem to want to push for it. But todays race was an awesome display from him.

Think next years championship may end up going spains way....unless Ferrari produce a shed.

Ah, sorry if the thread was a spoiler, kinda assumed peeps would have seen it being a late afternoon GP. Someone cleverer than me might be able to change the thread title to something more suitable.

Yup, if I ever dont see a race, and don't want to know the result, I put a CD on, on the way home, and watch tv channels that don't have news, and don't go on internet until I've seen the race.

I won't even read any texts until after I've watched it, as I'm bound to get one saying 'what about button then?!'.

Well to be honest if you go visiting a forum where 90% of the members are F1 fans on the day our boy takes the championship, I guess there's a chance you might read something eh?

I disagree with him 'trying hard to loose it'

yes he balls'ed up a few quallys, but in the races he as always earned the points, even in his so called 'poor' races, he has been fighting the car and the other drivers and squeezing points where ever possible.

he won the champ with a race to spare.

he was awesome yesterday, but I thought he was awesome in some of his other 'low points' finishes busin' moves on people left right and centre.

and all he needed to do was score points, look back at our friend HAM who smoked his rear tires pushing for more than he needed and crashing into the pit-lane gravel trap.
