I'm gutted for Button...
This could be my last season watching F1.. and I can honestly count on 1 hand how many races I have missed since the mid 80's. :(
I hate all the fakery that is on these cars. They want to get rid of all this downforce so drivers can sit behind another driver.. Look at Sutil and Vettle.. He couldn't get to him because of nothing other than downforce...
Watch 2003 Auz GP and watch the superb overtaking in several corners without all this crap on the front wings.. They look bad and they are patchetic... If I wanted to watch Scaletix then I would go and buy a box and watch the cars going around and around and around... The last few seasons have been very meh.
One of the most icons images in F1 is Senna and Mansell Adelaide 1990 on the straight with all the sparks flying and about a foot between them... That would never happen in todays F1.. Press a power button and open the wing.. yey.. I made a pass.. What ever. that isn't racing... That is just going around a track with a few obsicles in the way..
These are "SUPPOSED" to be the best of the best... Well one of the best things in the past was watching the likes of Senna and Scumi passing traffic.. Now it's a blue light and get out of my way...
Yes it was a good race.. but only by todays standards. They even admit that todays F1 is for the FanBoys and not the real supporters like it was. :(
