RedBull are starting to look really strong again now. I hope Vettle or Webber do not start to run away with it.

Once again Lewis puts in a amazing qualifying lap

I'm finding this whole technical thing regarding the red bull really annoying. If they have had all these bits approved during the season then that should be the end of it. Simple. It reminds me of the Mclaren brake steer fiasco.

It just goes to show that the rule makers in F1 are a bunch of muppets.

Never realised until just now that Button has yet to get a pole position with McLaren, while Lewis has 4 in the same time they have been team mates.

I like Button but he does seem to moan week in week out about something to do with the car.

Is that the one they use on the MP4C-246X or what ever it is called...Clever sh!t  :nerd:

I also assume you are not a Mclaren fan? :rolleyes:

yeah think i'll sky+ f1 probably be a vettel procession anyway

@stu646 i don't think button is a championship driver,he won his championship because of the brawn car that year starting so well,don't get me wrong he's a good driver,but can't seem to change his style to suit the car,if the cars not perfect he really struggles,he's not in the same class as vettel,hamilton,alonso,and 1 of those 3 will win it this year and probably for the next few years
