Looking at the way the season's progressed, I must admit that though there is not much to cheer about since there's no Ferrari on the podium much and M Schumacher is now history, I do feel a sense of happiness for Button and Webber. These guys have been around for quite some time now (Button started with Williams way back in 2000 while Webber started out with the Minadi in 2002) without much to cheer for. Button has struggled with the then BAR Honda and to see him leading this years championship is nice.Webber too has shown what he can do with his car and to win a race finally must have been a great relief.
I somehow don't see Barichello wining the championship this season. He is way to inconsistent to pull out a stunt like that. He's an amazing driver on his day but somehow he never manages to bring a consistency in his driving and I see him always playing second fiddle to some driver or the other. If it was Schumacher then, it seems like its Button this time around. I wish he could pull up his socks and do something about it (ya ok the Brawn cars were stuggling to get heat into the tyres but still)
After winning the 2007 championship, Kimi seems to be having off years. He does drive well in parts. I don't think anyone will be complaining the way he's driving this year though given the lack of performance from the Ferrari team as a whole. If RedBull continue this performance, the championship will be tightly fought !
