I won't even read any texts until after I've watched it, as I'm bound to get one saying 'what about button then?!'.
Hahaha that's EXACTLY what i do!!!!!!

There were 4 laps left and i thought about logging on to Oople but quickly halted as i knew i'd see the result lol

I personally just don't actually like Button, i think he's too cocky and arrogant - always blamed his cars / kit / team and never really come across as a team player in my eyes......

I heard an interview from when he was 15 saying "I put myself in the same category as Senna & Schumacher as i've won the same sort of Karting events as they had at my age" - To be that self-assured at 15 is pretty off putting to me lol.....

I just don't feel like he deserves it this year, i know people said the same about Lewis but at least he was there or thereabouts at every GP - If Brawn hadn't got the jump on everyone else Button would have litereally blown it this year by his performances in the last 12 races - He was great to start with but quickly seemed to drop completely off the pace and not have any "fight" in him....

It's a proper James Hunt type championship win for me - winning a title when everyone else lacked the equipment to challenge him....

Final thing i want to say is that i think Barrichello is a good driver but certainly not one of the "Elite", so to be pushed so hard by him shows to me that Button isn't actually in the same league as Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel and Kimi...... he's obviously good but don't think he'll ever be "one of the greats" like Schumacher, Senna, Prost or such - whereas i think Lewis has the potential to join that sort of group.

Sorry to upset any Button fans but this is just my opinion after all
