Would like to know people's opinion on Mark's chances this year, and in the future. Or has time run out for him.

Nice job by Webber in Brazil... good win to pick up. And congrats to Button for the WDC.

[knockout]

Congratulations go to Webber on his latest win. This is one guy who shows that persistance really does pay off!:goodjob:

Maybe one day he can even bring home that championship. Just needs a bit of luck on his side.

Hamilton was up by 15 positions, so I think he deserves the most credits. Webber did a great job, just like Kubica.

Kovalainen has set Raikonnen on fire.

Kobayashi looked really good for a rookie. He overtook Button. I think it means something.

Interesting to note that Webber also got fastest lap again.
That gives him 3 for the year. 3 of the last 7, in fact.
Webber: 3 : Hungarian, Japanese and Brazil
Button :2 : Mayasian and Turkish
Barrichello: 2 : Chinese and Spanish
Vettel 2 : British and Belgian
Alonso: 2 : German and Singapore
Rosberg: 1: Australian
Trulli: 1 : Bahrian
Massa: 1 : Monaco
Glock: 1 : European
Sutil: 1 : Italian

Go Mark, was worth waking up for!

Good way to finish the season, best of luck in Abu Dhabi!

Congrats to JB too! Well deserved, but if RBR had the Double Diffuser from Melb, what are peoples opinions on how the championship would have panned out?

im not a massive fan of the open wheelers, but cant ignore a great effort by Webber. Hope it only gets better for him, will have to pay more attention to the F1's now.

Kovalainen has set Raikonnen on fire.

well there are rumors that Kimi is returning to McLaren in 2010 to take Heikki's seat......that's one way to stop that!

I feel sorry for Kimi getting the boot from Ferrari, and it looks like Hamilton will beat him in points the year too, all I can hope for is Alonzo and Massa can get the prancing horse back on track, but it was great to see webber win a race!.

And does anyone else thing Button was a bit arrogant when he found out he won the WDC? or is it just me?

Button won 6 out of 7 first races only because the main sponsor for Brawn sponsored him, not Barichello, and that all other teams caught up with double diffuser after 7 races. Buttons advantage was big enough to maintain it until the end.

It was first and last of Button's wins. He's most likely not coming to Brawn next season either.

Good stat there seldo.

Great win and drive by Mark, interesting first lap to say the least, but from then on he just had to get the head down and make no mistakes.

I think Hamilton was a tad lucky to make up all those places, courtesy of the safety car. Well done to Button, he deserved the championship, regardless of the Double Diffuser debacle at the beginning of the year, he still had to drive the thing for those 6 wins.

Lets hope Webbo can make it a third win in this last race.

Really??? who will he race for?

[goofafidamedes]

Button to stay at Brawn.

Webber definitely staying put @ RBR.

Raikkonen to Toyota.

Rosberg to McLaren.

After that - who knows - or really cares.
