Interesting Sunday topic

[5.0%]

Who is going to finish first Button or Vettel?

Both drivers who are far better than their cars and so outperform.

Will it be Button's great experience and smoothness that wins or Vettel's push and agression. It will be especially interesting if it is wet.

Tough call, like you say both out perform their car's, so I would suggest it may be down to the car finishing the race rather than driver input.

Personally, Button would be my choice.

On last years result you have to assume Button likes Brazil so will put in a strong performance. I think Honda need a strong finish to the year, if nothing else to pick up the moral at home.

As Martin Brundle once said "If you give that car a proper paint job it'll probably go half a second a lap faster". Lets hope they don't have that god awful earth scheme next season (even if the message is noble, if not misguided...)

Some interesting analysis of Button's lap times in China in last weeks Autosport, he was the fastest driver out of the pits on dry tyres in the damp conditions by quite a large margin (3 seconds iirc). He really is awesome in these conditions.

think honda guys have been quoted as saying (currently) that the paint job will remain for next year - they think it's working(!?). oh dear...

however, the honda is still probably better than the str at the moment, even tho i do really rate vettel...
