Button out, starts 14.

If Liuzzi has to change his gearbox then Vettel will be bumped up to 15th.

Not really his on track performance, its his and the teams judgement in crucial situations.

Rubens is light but ofcourse out of the Lap 1 trouble and I fancy Webber is gonna go aggressive with nothing to lose as such, all's not lost by any means if Button gets around the first lap clean and can start attacking the guys ahead. He needs a good start and then try and make his way to the head of the heavy guys, if he's anywhere from about 11th forwards after 10 laps I reckon he has a mega chance of a decent points haul due to his fuel load.

Wet race its anyones, Dry race I fancy Mark Webber for a win.

Frustrating from button yesterday, i dont really know who's call it was on the tires but it has certainly made today very interesting. I have a feeling it will tip down at some point today which could really mix things up, especially if it happens just after the leaders have pitted.

Cant wait, although i dont really expect much from Jensen.

Should be noted regardless of where Button finishes Barrichello has to finish atleast 4th to make it winnable in Abu Dhabi, if Button scores any points he has to obviously finish higher. Button should just go for it, no point plodding around and probably not scoring anything, Barrichello will have a fight on his hands with Webber and needs to get a good start.

Trouble for Button is Vettel and the KERS McLarens who could quite easily swallow him up at the start and the rookies ahead, 14th really was the worst possible result.

Jenson!!!



Thoroughly deserved. His early season dominance has been somewhat forgotten. Cashed in when he had the best car with stunning results, and he'll rightly be crowned champion today

Well done Button. Last season if you had told me that jenson would be the world champion this year, i'd have laughed in your face.

Great race, had plenty of action & overtaking. Webbers car was just crazy in terms of performance, a country mile over the field.

Button's race cemented him as a worthy champion in my opinion, some quality overtaking throughout the race.

Interlagos crowns another champion!

Great GP, really enjoyable.

To be fair Rubens punctured his own tyre with trying to force Lewis into the wall. Gutsy move by Lewis though.

World Champion drive from Jenson, what is it about Brazil that means the title drivers have to fight back, Schumacher 2006, Hamilton 2007,8 and now Button 2009.

Fantastic stuff, and :lol: at Eddie Jordan at the end there.
