Since Hamilton mathematically cannot beat Button I think its time.

All in good fun lets lighten up the mood here a little

What's this implying? Boy if i posed this of any other driver.. :roll:

Anyway button has more points. But it doesn't really phase any Hamilton fan.
Hamilton didn't lose on inferior talent or pace.
He lost thanks to back luck and mistakes. Such is life.

I know Button fans would have loved for Button to actually have been the quicker of the 2. But Button hasn't raced Hamilton for a win this year or good finishes.
He succeeds when Hamilton has a messed up weekend.

So i don't really feel any loss of such. Just realized Hamilton took too long to realize that with DRS and KERS, you don't fight, you let things happen.
Fighting for position and driving hard doesn't bring good results like it did a year a go.
So in that respect he was too naive.
The other thing is i realize he is very soft. Alonso is cold blooded animal, which is what Hamilton should aim to be. He let the media get to him, and also the stewards get to him.

So i will change avatar but i, like most fans, aren't shocked or anything. We saw the season and we saw all the opportunities that were dashed away.

I still don't think Hamilton can be beaten head to head. Or he will reach a point where he accepts that his teammate is faster than him.
This season was a mess, and even Massa could have got more points than Hamilton.

Still the fastest driver in F1, and still has the mentality that only wins matter.
That was a weakness as well, as the focus was Vettel and Vettel alone.
All or nothing i guess.

I think Ringo means; no one can beat an on-form; on-song Hamilton in equal machinery.

Excuses, excuses. C'mon a little grace won't hurt you.

Being the fastest driver who also makes a lot of mistakes is a bit like dating an insanely beautiful woman who has herpes: the end result is really all that matters.

Precision, consistency and an even keel (maturity) are just as important in F1 as raw speed, and Button has easily outshone his teammate in those areas - not to mention points.

Imagery needn't be elegant to be effective. :wink:

Surely the avatar has to celebrate the key moments in Hamilton's season....

There is only ONE image that can sum up the story of Hamilton's season, which is the love story between him and his significant other (and I ain't talking about no Pussycat Doll) ...
