nice

funny comments on here, dont listen to everythiing that Eddie Ervine says in the press, it was a stupid comment for him to make at the time. It should be pretty equal between Lewis and Jenson, but Lewis will probably edge him in quali and Jenson having the better race pace, but will soon see

@LeJimster-not all but by most..Ralf beat him,fisi beat him ,rubens beat him...Trulli should have beaten him(he was quicker but suffered technical issues on several occasions)...so whose left??sato is average ..ya ok he beat JV. JV was abt to retire..but he scored only 17 pts the whole season.. exceptional drivers show their class in ordinary cars..eg-alonso for minardi,MS for jordan,kimi for sauber..Jenson has never shown anything ..he won in budapest once coz the others crashed out!

[LeJimster]

@xxxsde GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT! 2000= Ralf beats by 12pts 2001= Fisi beats by 6pts 2002= Beat Trulli by 5 pts 2003= Beat Villeneuve by 10 pts (a WDC no less) 2004= Beat Sato by 51 pts 2005= Beat Sato by 36 pts 2006= Beat Rubens by 26 pts 2007= Beat Rubens by 6 pts (dog car) 2008= Rubens beats JB by 7 pts (dog car) 2009= Beat Rubens by 18pts So in the last 10 seasons he's been beaten 3 times, 2 of those in his first 2 seasons (forgivable) and once in a dog car. Comprehensively beaten, my ass.

@LeJimster -that's fine for you to have your opinion but what has Jenson ever done to be judged as a supreme talent???As i said,he has been comprehensively beaten by all his team mates!!!

na i disagree,when other teams caught up and Brawn sorted Rubens brake problems..Jenson struggled and showed he was not worthy of a WDC..He will always be an average driver who got lucky!!!

[LeJimster]

@xxxsde

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. JB is a supreme talent in my eyes, who has only had 1 real chance to win the WDC and he has convincingly done it.

I think if he had kept attacking/taking chances he would have wrapped the title up sooner, but having the lead ALL season put pressure on him which you saw lifted after Brazil.

Lewis is an immense talent also, but he only just managed to scrape the extra point he needed to win his WDC, exciting but hardly convincing.

Bring on 2010!!

@LeJimster -He won because his car was significantly better than the rest..Earlier in the season..the car suited JB more than RB.,he complained throughout of brake problems..

JB has been beaten by every single team-mate he has ever had....He is an average driver at best!!he was at the right place at the right time and he had team orders to go with it,,lewis will crush him!!!

[LeJimster]

@xxxsde Average drivers do not win races. Nevermind 6 in one season. Average drivers do not come from 14th in the wet to win their first race. JB overtook more drivers and was more consistant than anyone else in 2009. It's not his fault if his competitors let the ball drop. And no, the clutch problem isn't a car problem. It was discussed at length by DC/Brundle/Jordan and they all agreed it's a weakness RB has had with every team he's drived for.

[xxxsde]

@LeJimster -Ross chose RB because hi s experience and his setting -up skills,which are unmatched in the paddock.. Brawn needed someone of his caliber ..Clutch problems were inherent in the car,it wasnt Rubens fault..btw you didnt offer an argument on my earlier comment abt brazil,singapore etc..and you cant either because its true...Jenson is an avg driver at best..anybody who has followed f1 over the past 10 season knows that!!!
