Maybe it's because Lewis acts like a spoilt twerp? I think he's a great driver but Jenson is a great driver too, doesn't spend his whole time blaming someone else and actually seems like a decent bloke (I would quite happily go to the pub with JB, Hamilton less so).
You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

Lewis simply carries much more corner speed than Button when you look at their lap comparisons, and ultimately delivers a faster lapRon Dennis himself has said in the past that it was Mclaren's fault for not giving Kimi a reliable enough car to win the WDC. Mclaren has always had the lion's share of mechanical problems, right from the Hakkinen era to Kimi and now Lewis has also suffered the same. You can't say that all three drivers are car breakers.

I'm guessing they were just looking for any way to give an award to Button. Freaking joke.

Well said, Cap'n
BTW, about drivers' personalities. We should keep in mind that what we get to see on TV is often not very representative of their real nature. Why Vettel has chosen to be obnoxious, while in reality he is a very likeable and funny guy remains anybodies guess. I would hazard a guess that the influence of Dr. Marko isn't a very positive one.
Hamilton has done himself no favours with 2011 and also Alonso had his moments this year, like throwing the hat of Vettel to the side like a petulant child in Abu Dhabi. Guess media pressure, people constantly brown-nosing them does that to people.как могу я знать что я думаю, пока не слушал что я говорю
About car sharing.. as Mikkelsen's drives were confirmed, can we assume the others..? Monte - Mikkelsen Sweden - Lappi Kenya - Lappi Croatia - Mikkelsen Portugal - Sordo Sardegna - Sordo?...
