    And he proved it, with his spectacular performance in the Renault this year... so Button should have just kept his mouth shut... Button is not Alonso.

    Tell that to Scott Speed. He tells reporters that the US doesn't have enough grooming for F1 wannabes (which is true), and that open-wheel racing in an oval does not teach you anything... :)

    Will we get F1 racing back in the US? Another US driver?.... a US team maybe? :D

    Yes what I meant was, I believe Ferrari sorted the car in the wet, to be on a par with Mclaren, albeit a little to late, this may have helped Massa, but completely did the opposite for Kimi.

    It might have for sure. Ferrari's light system and Massa's engine failing on him would have helped too, lol

    At times, yes it was the best. But MOST of the time, it was not the best. The Ferrari was, on average, a significantly better car this year.

    You have piled on every excuse imagineable to reason why Lewis was somehow lucky to win. It wasn't luck - it was skill.

    Oh, so the McLaren isn't a "slower car" than the Ferrari now? You can continue to have your man-crush on Hamilton all you like but he was very lucky on several occasions. Monaco and Brazil for one. Skilled, hell yes, but say what you want, but luck played a huge part in this year's championship.

    How do you know he shaves his legs? The plot thickens, I don't think Sutil will appreciate you moving in on his turf, Steve...:)

    I know what he was saying. And the McLaren wasn't always slower than the Ferrari during the year.

    That's the rumor, apparently there were two on this year's grid. There was a whole thread on it on here. This pic didn't help either....:)

    Formula 1 is basically a technical showplace. always has been. I can remember Schumacher *****ing long and loud when his ride couldn't hack it against Williams or the Macs, or whatever. Most people understand that a Jackie Stewart might drive a dog car a little faster, but he's not gonna WIN with it.

    Actually I could give a crap who he boinks, lol.
    I dunno, but If it were me, I'm not sure if I'd want a girl, albeit a super hot one like Nicole, that much older than me when I could have pretty much whomever I want at anytime. Then again I'm a man-slut so maybe it's just me and my dislike of commitment..:)


    You gotta admit though, that is one funny pic.
