Well done Jenson and Brawn :yahoo:

 

For a change you drove like you wanted to win the championship. Enjoy it though because i dont think you will win it again though :blush:

 

Next year the competition will hopeflly turn up at race 1 and you wont get away without winning a grand prix since June again. ;)

But yesterday you were saying after qualifying:

 

"Sorry to say i just dont rate Jenson as a racer What was he thinking by not putting intermediates on? Sorry to say this but if the F1 season was to start now i would give him no better odds than 50/1 for the championship"

 

When the likes of Martin Brundle and David Coulthard marveled at his overtaking moves I think you should look again at Jenson's understated racing abilities. We can all this season has been more about car advantage - Brawn had it for the first third and then other teams came good - even Force India when their set-up suited the circuit.

 

Yes, Jenson played the percentage game when the car odds were stacked against him and yes, some of his qualifying has left something to be desired. But to suggest he is not a racer when he didn't have to take the risks of passing moving chicanes like Nakajima and his fellow countryman - but he did and with a great deal of skill, is an underserved put-down yesterday Dave. :thumbdown:

 

And as a betting man, well you got that quite wrong but then there were so many options neither would I have said he had an obvious chance this race, but again he came through when it mattered. :yahoo:

 

Jenson has suffered from some bad management decisons and perhaps poor insight on his part in terms of teams moves, such that he has never previoulsy had the equipment to get the job done. He has, and in the process I hope it does not mean the end of Rubens career as he must be feeling very low now with his continuing bad luck at his home circuit.

 

Jenson is a very worthy champion in my book :#1:

I am entitled to my opinion Colin as you are to yours but sorry he is not in the same league as Hamilton or Alonso imo. Jenson won this years championship at the start when no one else turned up with a decent car and that is because Brawn made the best of a major change in the rules for this year and they are to be congratulated for that.But because of that and the fact that JB won six out of seven of the first gp's when no one else had a race winning car the championship was already over. But like i said if the championship started now with the cars as they are now he would not imo win the f1 championship. Well done to him for winning the championship but i really dont see him winning it again. :) I do sometimes think Colin you look at some of these drivers with rose tinted glass's :lol:

 

And what part of being a betting man did i get wrong? I said if the 2009 championship started now i would have him no better than a 50/1 chance for the drivers championship ;)

 

Oh and Martin Brundle and David Coulthard are not in the hall of greats, i really dont think they marvelled at the overtakes either ;)

 

All i am saying is it must be a poor championship when the winning driver has not won a race since June :wacko: And up to this year JB had done nothing and that says everything to me, and if you had a £10 bet last January Colin on this years F1 drivers champion you would not have backed JB not even with my money ;)

 

Tonight Britain as a new world champion and he is to be congratulated for that but he is not Britains best formula 1 driver that honour still belongs to a certain Mr Hamilton who quite frankly as been awesome in what started the season as one so called pundit put it Mclarens worst ever car, and yet he still managed to win and make his team mate look stupid :)

 

JB drove well today but he had to do something after yesterdays shocking bad driver/team decision during qualifying it was starting to be embarrasing, he as dithered since June constantly blaming the cars poor performance due to tyre temperature issues that proved unfounded. Like i said earlier he wont win the championship again imo but he like you say is a worthy champion as they all are but overall i would say that it was a poor season from a competition point of view. :)
