theduisbergkid Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I think it's between Button or Vettel, but I don't know sh*t frankly, I thought as the start of the season it would be Massa v Hamilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I think everyone did Apparently Ferrari are canning any more developments on the F60 (this year's car) and focusing on the 2010 car Ferrari almost ready to end focus on F60 - F1technical.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) I think it may end up close, but Button will hold off Vettel's challenge, owing as much to Brawn's tactical genius as anything. Edit: That isn't to make light of Button's achievement and ability as a driver by the way. When Brawn comes up with the tactical plan to win the race, he can be absolutely confident that Button will drive to that plan - this season Button has been almost Schumacher-esque in that respect.

Simon690 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 If Button can keep a cool head he has the championship in the bag, any bet against him will have long odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khutula Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 I really hope Button makes it, Red Bull look good at mo, Ferrari are upping their game and hopefully they can take some points of Vettel/Webber in the run in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
