ppl need to calm down.lewis just was slow off the line coz he lacked grip.
Good job he was on the clean and not the dirty side of the grid then, otherwise heaven knows how far he would have been down the field. Did he really have less grip than Button?
....in clean air im sure hamilton would have been just as fast as jenson was in clean air,so the bad start cost him,then the bad luck he had later in the race.
When he was in clean air he was no faster than Button.
but i expect lewis to get pole on saturday,and get off to a good start on sunday,then we'll see what happens.
but in sundays race i thought lewis looked after his tyres well and his only mistake was the bad start.
also didnt button win a race before lewis in 2010 and lewis win a race before button in 2011?
and lewis beat button in 2010 and button beat lewis in 2011.so so far the driver that hasnt won the first race has gone on to beat the other driver over a season.
In the great majority of seasons since Melbourne started to host the Australian GP the winner of the race has gone on to become WDC. Whether or not his happens this season we will find out later.
