Yes. He shouldn't have come back. He is too old and too slow. Give the Mercedes to di Resta and the Force India to Chandhok.
Well I dont think he's very slow, he's about 2/10th slower then rosberg at best, but I guess the frustrating situations he gets into are getting to him now. I hope he continues!
Brawn and Merc still believe he has it - So who are we to question these professionals. MS did not buy his new ride to my knowledge so drive on !!
It happens in all forms of sport (maybe not tiddlywinks);
Look at Tennis, Snooker, Athletics etc. As soon as someone comes a long to dominate, be it the Williams Sisters, Hendry, Linford etc, the bar is raised and the new breed of sportspeople come in at that level and better it.
It is nothing to get heated about - it just happens.
Schumacher was pressuring Senna in 1994, Hakkinen & Alonso pressured Schumacher in 1998/9/2005/6, Hamilton pressured Alonso in 2007, Vettel pressured the established frontrunners from 2009.
Unless you are in the class of the field car, with a significant advantage (not to detract from Button's achievments) but the new boys will always be nipping the heels of the current class.
Get over it!
I have the same impression as many of you about di Resta, without too much background details, scoring points in two of four races in a brand new championship is very good. Wait for more races to see the talent is proven permanently for the whole season or what he has achieved is not more than a sensation in the opening races, is a highly recommended candidate to fill up Schummacher's seat.
I feel sorry that Michael doesn't improve in the second year of his come back to the series. I can't believe driver who can give strong pressure on his opponents: Senna, Hakkinen, Damon Hill, is off beat when he comes to race against younger drivers. The skill and his instinct may be deteriorated by his age, but fans expect that he can do something better than his current pace, The Reinmeister..
Hamilton pressured Alonso in 2007, but the winner is Raikkonen :)

Here is a video of Hamilton and MS going toe to toe, wheel to wheel, buttocks to buttocks, with Hamilton on the fresh rubber right out of the pits and MS was on old rubber (whch everyone knows is a tremendous advantage with the new trojan rubbers from Pirelli, cause beleive me, used trojans are never as good as fresh ones......).
MS was far tougher on Hamilton then Button............of course, Button knowing he is the mac lap dog for lewis may explain why :D
You can guess which race

speaking of used rubber, reminds me of the time donkey and his bud were out in the country and approached by a sweet thing.
She said let's get it on....they said, "well, yes mam".
she said, "but I don't want to get preganent, so you got to wear this" and hands out one for each.
They put it on, and then they get it on.
About four months later, after she is gone, they get to talking.
One asks the other, "do you really care if she gets preganant?"
The other says, "well no I do not."
So the others say, "me neither, so why don't we take these old rubbers off......
Some folks along pit wall need to remember to take the old rubbers off earlier than later.....
Got anything more recent to prove the old dog can learn new tricks?
nice stolen photos showing petrov, turning LEFT into MS, such that while it was alleged that MS turned into him, and MS agreed, well, boys and girls, looks like MS was in the wrong, but only when he said it was his fault.
Petrov did the dirty.
Seems Petrov is the new Sato..........and the shame is that if the Kube had not had his wreck, he might be the only real challenger to Vettel, given the obvious speed of the new renault design.
Instead, they get the crazy russian
