may i remind you about how button once got this same sort of press coverage...he FAILED terribly!

yeah, look at a few points: Hamilton does NOT give ANY press time before he is in his car on the grid. he is meditating during that time. getting his head in the game, if you will. he drives clean...not the ragged/jagged edge that Schumi did, but clean nonetheless. interesting also that the first man-of-colour is doing so well.

Alonso...well, i am a fan, but am disappointed 1st by his leaving the team that was with him when he won 2 consecutive championships. i am disappointed by the fact that he is 'in' the points, but only because of his consistency (other than this past GP). then again, i suppose i should also remember that he did win his championships due partly to the fact that he was consistent. either way, it was disheartening that the mobile chicane himself (sato) passed his arse pretty hardcore in the Canadian GP. wtf is up with that?

yeah, 'my' team is doing poorly. Jarno needs to get on the ball and ralf needs to be fired. i DO dig the fact that Rosberg is doing well (as is the Williams team in-general) in a Toyota-powered vehicle.

honda...well, i feel bad for Rubens. he should have stayed with the Scuderia. Jensen, well...

Renault...well, maybe it's the new team colours...LOL it was such a good thing for Nissan when Renault was winning, but now...
i guess that team still hasn't gotten over losing Alonso to MacLaren.

Kimi...well, sorry, his excuse last season was that he didn't have the car. this year he has the car, but no 'real' results...not the ones that he had alluded to. Schumi and Kimi are friends off the grid (so i've 'heard') and the Schu has even been to a few GPs. seems Kimi has done worse with the Schu there! and if Kimi were all that, then what about his lack of 'champion'-like attitude? and how about Massa being more of the 'champ' than Kimi?

well, it's been a good season so far...well, interesting at least! the sport has never been UN-interesting, but these changes have made for good racing!

I saw it on Prime. He's always rubbing his eyes in the post-race interviews, though. I can only imagine the amount of sweat those eyebrows can collect.
