Jesnon Button is F1 World Champion!

Maybe the best race of the year... a lot of crazy stuff going on during the first three laps and some really great driving and passing throughout the course. Great race!!

Jenson Button finished fifth but it was enough to give him the Championship! Bravo Button! (Big for me, because it is now back to back English champions and being English...yeah, yada yada yada)

01. Weber
02. Kubica
03. Hamilton
04. Vetel
05. Button

Vettel drove really well but the odds really were against him anyway. Too many points to make up. He would have needed to win both races and have both Button and Barrichelo finishing out of the points in this and the next race to win. He's a good young driver though!

F1 has really improved since going back to manual controls and ditching all the automatic stuff. Can't wait for the Montreal GP in 2010!

Don't get your hopes up. Bernie wants to **** our governments over some more, refusing to pay taxes.

I'm so bitter at him that I'd rather not even have a GP here just so that Bernie ends up making no money off us. He's a greedy pig, and deserves nothing.

Vettel should go to Ferrari. I hate Alonzo.

Garbage F1 Season. F1 did everything it could to set McClaren and Ferrari back as much as posible with all the rule changes that clearly favored the inferior teams.

I hope the big teams leave and start their own pro circuit.

Yup.... I fail to see how it was fair to allow the losing teams to drop the development of their last season's car to concentrate on this year's one, while Ferrari and McLaren were still battling for the championship. The new regulations should have been published after the end of last season.

It's kind of like not just allowing, but encouraging NHL teams to tank, in order to get the best possible choice in the draft.
