What happened in the race? Oh yeah, Schumacher destroyed Button again.
Every time those two met on track (granted, it happened rarely because Schumacher was winning and Button was nowhere most of the time), Button turned into a mental midget and cracked.
2005 Canada: Button crashes out the moment Schumacher appears in his mirrors
2005 Imola: Schumacher overtakes Button with ease.
2003 Malaysia: Schumacher overtakes Button on last lap.

To call the BAR of 2004 a bad car is crazy. It helped someone like Sato take a podium and was easily the 2nd best car of the year. Someone like Schumacher would have won quite a few races in that car.

Rubens Barrichello insists he has not yet finalised a 2010 deal, despite reports that Williams is on the verge of announcing him as its new driver.

He'll hold out and see what happens with Jenson. If Brawny won't back down and pay Button more then Ruby still has a very good shot at staying with the team for 2010.

Rubens off to Williams according to yesterdays Daily Mirror.

Not the most accurate paper in the world, and somewhere in the story they even mentioned how good Gordon Brown is.

I'm surprised they didn't write Robbie Williams off to Brawn, or something...

The same Sky News that yesterday announced the death of the Lockerbie bomber before issuing a rather fumbled retraction about half an hour later. :rolleyes:

I'm not saying they're wrong about Barrichello, but it wouldn't be the first time.
