So he's had three consecutive good years by your own admission and you don't think that his current situation equates to a loss of form. If it wasn't you I'd be gob-smacked.

Not 3 consequtive good years, 3 years with periods of greatness, and periods of struggling to beat Barichello etc and periods where he just didnt turn up in the race , like Korea 2010, so not 3 consecutive years of greatness, 3 years of the old Jenson - patchy performance, good when car is perfect
Now his career spans 13 years so if we assume 3 half years of greatness, it could be argued that unless the car is perfect and faster than the rest (like first race this year) then Button has not changed much over the last decade, good when car is perfect, otherwise cant find grip, balance, baffled by poor quali, races where he doesnt score any points despite a perfectly healthy car

*yawn* Cookinflatsix
Lewis certainly has it over Jenson at the moment. Nice to see the boy back on form.

Yeah, Im sure once Jenson gets his confidence back he will beat Lewis
unless its Lewis showing his real form that has demoralised Button, maybe this is the reason so many advised him not to enter the lions den in 2009. Funny old game F1, Jenson brilliance in races last year will be forgotten if he continues like this

If everyone says "yes Cook, you are right" will you talk about something different for once?

Perhaps I could point out that you started talking about Button after the race, post 1302
I dont think my particular brand of hyperbole is needed today as Lewis has said it all with his driving,
I did change my signature though

Not dedicated to me then, there was a period in 2010 when I didn't support him.

the important thing is that you have moved back from the dark side gethinceri
Pre-race Cook! no point talking about him after
Really? Seems to me Hamilton and Whitmarsh have forged a closer bond this season. Maybe the latter finally got over his man crush on Jenson!
Button after 7 races - 45 points
Hamilton after 7 races in 2011 - 85 points
Even despite Hamilton's problems in 2011 he is still 40 points ahead of what Button is after 7 races, it's also interesting to note that Hamilton 'only' has 3 more points this season than he did at this point last season!

Very interesting stat.
Very true that, mainly magnetism to a certain Ferrari that wasn't Alonso for once!
Up to and including Canada, these are Hamilton's results for 2011 and 2012.
2011: 2 8 1 4 2 6 RET
2012: 3 3 3 8 8 5 1
If not for that incident in Canada, Hamilton would have been comfortably ahead at this point last year, and the season would have been a whole lot different.
