Jarno Trulli for once didn't fall asleep in the race as he has always been quick in Qualifying. Amazed to see him where he was today.

On the subject of Bottling, I seem to remember a certain L Hamilton spunking a 17 point lead up the wall with 2 races left not so long ago. Buttons recent performances aren't pulse raisers but I've got more confidence in Button delivering than I would Hamilton doing something stupid.

I've loved this seasons races as the behemoths haven't had it all their own way. That and the fact that odds makers know f*** all about F1 and I've cleaned up on Betfair recently. (Vettel was 3-1 for pole yesterday, unbelievable price - also thank god I didn't lay Button earlier in the season as I was tempted to)

Well no, because clearly you have to be given the tools to perform with in F1. If McLaren give the world champion a dog then he has to race with a dog and can't win. Simple as that. And for half this season McLaren did give Lewis a dog. That's like saying if you put Lewis in a Ford Focus and told him to race against Nelson Piquet in a Ferrari that Lewis wouldn't be a champion because he wouldn't win. He's a champion - end of story.

And he may not have been able to prove it to the extent you'd like, but guess what, he's 24 years old! This is his third season and in the two he's had a competitive car he's won a championship and finished runner-up. Seriously, what more could he possibly have done to win your approval?

So the car makes the driver?

He has got my approval, never said he didn't, but he isn't a god, and he isn't the best racing car driver I've ever seen.
