Re: For Peak Oil Benzine Heads (none / 0)

one would suspect, that Button is less mercurial than Alonso, but as there is more ego in F1 than in any other galactic cluster, one never knows.

Re: For Peak Oil Benzine Heads (none / 1)

well one thing that will no doubt cause an ammount of friction will be that Button will have number 1 on his car and Hamilton number 2, something that no doubt will be magnified as a problem in the eyes of hangers on and family.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Re: For Peak Oil Benzine Heads (none / 0)

I don't think that's a real issue, as it reflects reality. They both know the 2010 results are the whole game. Button "for sure" knows that many in the paddock don't consider him an elite driver, and Lewis knows he simply didn't have a horse this year.
