3 laps, 3.5 seconds. Unless if Hamilton has completely murdered his tyres, he has this race won.
A shame because I would have loved to see a battle between Button and Hamilton, it doesn't look like it was to be. Still, they must be very happy at the team, another 1-2.

bullshit by mclaren
YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!! I can finally celebrate. No counting the eggs before they've hatched. 
Fuck you JTF1. You'll extend your lead another week. I'm just happy my boy got pole and the win this weekend. Kubica ruined the perfect weekend, but that's fine. Hamilton is back where he belongs, leading the WDC! I'm ecstatic. PEACE.

Another good 1-2 for McLaren!

Honestly, I don't think that you should read too much into it. Everything changes race-by-race it seems. Ferrari could potentially dominate Valencia for all we know, while Red Bull could even come back or McLaren could end up with another 1-2, it's anyone's guess, really.

Congrats your McLaren gamble paid off. I think I got some decent points too.
So, after this Hamilton - Button 1-2 we have McLaren leading the constructors championships, and for the first time this season (I think) Hamilton leading the World Championship.
If my calcs are correct:
Hamilton: 109
Button: 108
Webber: 103
Alonso: 94
Vettel: 90

This was a high speed track which favours mclaren. We can only speculate for now.

not a hater
that's two races in a row where mclaren have called off the race between their drivers.
If it is then RBR will be cursing their reliability, Renault, the weather, their drivers, pretty much everything.navanman said:
By rights they should have ran off with the season BrawnGP style, instead McLaren and Alonso have crept straight back up and have got back on track. The McLarens are now the team to beat. Reliable, fast, unstoppable?
We're in for a great season, we're not even half done yet.
Not one, but two passes for the lead today. I'll give Alonso credit for retaking the lead on that one lap though. Awesome action today. I'm gonna give the circuit credit for now, although I remember some dreadful races there like 2001. Whatever the case, though, this track should never have left the calendar. Glad it's back.
Now that Lewis is even on wins with Jenson, I can go back to calling him Benson. I'll hold off on that though, since Button's impressed me quite a bit lately. He's got more racing spirit than I gave him credit for. I guess they didn't take yesterday's football match so hard. :lol PEACE.
EDIT: Ferrari fans should be happy. That car was on pace or faster than the Macs today. Quite a feat given their last few races.

Nothing to :lol at. He would have been in front of LH after the pits if he wasn't held up on his in lap.
Red Bull has fucking blown it, they should have been miles in front in the championship by now. You know what i wouldn't write off Alonso, getting a new car next race and he is the best driver by quite a long way.
But well done to LH and JB.

Excellent job by the mclarens, great for Alonso as well, Massa had very bad luck again.
Brilliant race.
Alsonso was able to close up on Lewis before his last stop because of traffic so he shouldn't complain too much. He did certainly lose 2nd because because of traffic though.
McLaren really need to sort out their pit stops. Second race in a row where Lewis has lost a position because of slow stops. They had major issues in China too. Hope it doesn't continue back in europe.

Legard was on top form this weekend: http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=2nizhn5&s=6

At one point he was talking some nonsense about how Jenson has been acknowledged by the team to preserve his tyres better when they've said no such thing. McLaren have actually come out and said that they've seen no data that supports that but yet here this fool is pulling bs out of his ass. What made it even more hilarious is when Lewis responded to Jenson's pressure by pulling a fastest lap out of his bag. Legard did manage to keep his mouth shut after Lewis' engineer came on the radio and said he had the pace and told him to go back to saving his tyres though.
It's such a shame we don't have David Croft from 5live on the main broadcast. Hopefully the BBC shuffle everybody for next season.
