This is a strange comment from you Julian.Julian Mayo wrote:Imho, Nick is one of the top 5 drivers, Webber was hardly disgraced as his team-mate.
Button had Sato.
Webber is also in my top 5, so there is no implication at all JV.JayVee wrote:This is a strange comment from you Julian.Julian Mayo wrote:Imho, Nick is one of the top 5 drivers, Webber was hardly disgraced as his team-mate.

It almost implies that Nick is better than Webber
And what happened to the half a second

but you did say any teammate 
Thanks Teach! Yes it is a Button thread, and if you scrute the insrcutable you will see there there is a backhander around the chops for Buttsy compared to Mark. Button can't win a race in a tailor made car, Webbo has been doing better with wheeled s..tboxes than most others could---as perceived by the team managers/owners, and press.JayVee wrote:Pardon me Mr Ambassador but this is a Button threadJulian Mayo wrote: watching Barra struggle with the transition to Honda makes me think that Mark Webber is even better than I thought. To jump from the minardi pedal car to that god-awful Jag and promptly ring its neck with pole etc, then into last years a#%& burning williams with no complaint. Little wonder he was recently awarded the Lorenzo Bandini Trophy for Driving Ability.
Hang on, I think there is a lot of similarities between Button and Webber, both are 6 letter names with a double in the middle
Both have yet to win a race and both have put their cars on Pole only to fall back in the race due to light fuel or a bad start or lack of consistency, etc ....
But if this is about Barrachello struggling, then perhaps it is worth mentioning that the gap between Button and Barrichello doesn't make Michael look good at all. And factor in the preferential treatment Michael gets at Ferrari and it looks worse.
And it also makes Button look good

Wasn't stirring, Mayo, I promise, but I suppose 'mediocre' was a tadge inflammatory, heh. However, I'd still like to see him win, as would most of Australia. And yes, he knows how to play the F1 game as well. Just imagine Webber and Button at Honda - that would be a competitive package - and just how far would both of them have to raise their game? Still think Button would come out on top though.Julian Mayo wrote:The mediocre driver is quoted at length in todays SMH, among other things he praise Button for what he has been able to do with the Honda.
Hope your in a better mood today JMJulian Mayo wrote:The mediocre driver is quoted at length in todays SMH, among other things he praise Button for what he has been able to do with the Honda.
Your man got into the top ten and his team mate floundered. Oh dear 10 place penalty 
. At least Jenson had the good sense to get out of his contract with that mediocre team and stick with a bunch of rank amateurs with dilusions of granduer (damn that was gonna be a really venomous satirical put down and I ended up rubbing my own nose in the dirt... F1 sucks 
...I'm off to the wind tunnel to get some fresh air!) Yeah, not a good qually for the Buttonster, and he even put up his hands and said he wasn't very good at Nurburgring, bless. Or did I detect some cagey straegy going on?Julian Mayo wrote:Always in a good mood,snowy......unless I am in a bad one
For some reason the Williams team decided to change engines.......at least it wasn't the gearbox this time

We have seen a quite massive turn around with the ferrari, we shouldn't write off Honda just yet. They can change they now have enough lousy results to demand heads to roll or improvements made.
