Jenson Button F1 Overtakes 09 vid

[mattikake]

Well not really but all of his 2009 overtakes feature in this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOX0Pt1Nobo

Britain haters beware...

Looks like Lewis Hamilton to me.

[mattikake]

Try watching it for more than a couple of minutes...

Good vid.

Highlights the best of both our lads.

[llewop]

good work.

I think 2010 could be a really good year for McLaren!

Although I'm not sure I agree with the idea of them screwing up qualifying too often, at least, as shown, the pair of them are probably the best overtakers in F1 so cocking up quali should not be the end of things.

Brilliant that, well done.

You know what, Jenson Button - leaving qually issues aside and talking only of track-action, i'm not sure i can recall a driver doing so much on track with so few mistakes. I mean, almost all of that driving from Button on that vid is millimetre perfect.

And now he's surprised absolutely everyone to leave that team to go and check out how he'll perform in the lions den.

I'd written him off a year or so ago...

Well done that man, I thoroughly enjoyed that. Makes you proud to be British.
Agreed, two of the best overtakers in F1.
I would love to see the McLaren in Olive green and Grey with RAF roundels on next year

Another great vid - well done!

Good video.

Only one criticism. You felt no need to annotate Lewis' overtakes in the first half of the vid, so there was no need really to almost apologise for Jenson's in the second half. " 'Standard overtake on Nakajima' " made me cringe a bit.

Good editing apart from that though.

Nice one.

The move on Kubica from Jens at Suzuka was my favourite.

[KeithR]

Great video and a great pair of British drivers! What a team they'll make next year!!!

Videos like this don't do much for my F1 withdrawal symptoms. FFS COME ON MARCH!!!!

Best one of 2009.

[heebeegeetee]

Enjoyed the reference to John Watson too. He was the best overtaker in the business for a spell...

[mattikake]

From what I have seen (as per an overtakes vid) Wattie never messed up a single overtake. Never out-braked himself, never made contact, was more unstoppable and clinical than Prost or Senna ever were and always got it just right every time.

Anyway, cheers for all the positives. I reckon this vid is a bit cheesy, but I don't care about that!

My selection of the best overtakes of 2009 will be up soon...

[kiteless]

Look forward to it, chap

[freddytin]

Crackin' cheese Matti.

Jensons drive in Brazil, under so much pressure, and so little assistance from the also rans, was truly the showing of a great World Champion.

[Mojocvh]

Brilliant Matti, nicely balanced!
Wow 2010 is going to be awesome!!!

MoJo.

[Miss Pitstop]

Great video - although I can't help think that Jenson managed it without KERS though. (just to stir up a hornets nest amongst you!!)
