F1 fans would forget Robert Kubica long before they forget Ferrari

He has a two-year contract and the 2011 ZX is supposed to be a big-bang engine. 2010 Learning year with the team, 2011 assault on the title. If BMW can run in the top 6 with Corser, surely Kawasaki can get there with Vermuelen.

I find it a bit funny that Button could have sat home in 2009 and made more from Honda that he made actually driving for Brawn in 2009, and probably more than he will make for 2009 AND 2010, even as WDC. Based on his results prior to 2009, he was highly overpaid for several season, seems fitting he might be a bit underpaid going forward. The guys that actually write the checks are unsure he is anything more than a one-year wonder. Hate away...

Hamilton and Button on the same team would be my preferred scenario. Then all will see who is the better driver. Button will look mediocre, it will be clear Lewis is superior. Kimi in a Brawn would be good to see too, although I have a feeling he might just retire rather than take a huge pay cut. He has nothing left to prove.

Bernie will control F1 until the day he dies, maybe longer...

He will be the top private team rider, sixth is my guess. Top 6: Lorenzo Stoner Rossi Hayden Pedrosa Spies Toseland will score less than 3 points.

More like good on Ross Brawn for a clearly superior yet rule-abiding design that let Jenson accumulate a huge point lead in the first few races. Also good on the Brawn GP team for near faultless reliability along with Mercedes providing the best engine money could buy. There are at least half a dozen drivers that would have won the championship in the Brawn this year (Button, Kimi, Hamilton, Alonso, Vettel, Massa). Jenson just happens to be one of them. He made the most of his opportunity in 2009.

Button's comments might give us insight into his mental toughness, or lack thereof. So he lost sleep in the middle of the season when he was only in the points but not winning. But I wonder if he was stressed in previous years when the cars were bad and his driving painfully average? If Button only stresses when he has a chance of winning (or should be winning in the best car), what does this say for 2010 and beyond when Brawn won't have a huge diffuser advantage? Back to seventh place and cashing checks I suppose... I can't stand Alonso, but he has drove hard even in a mediocre Renault for the past two years. I'm not so sure about Button.

I would guess Hayden turns down more tail on a race weekend that Nobby has seen in his entire life.

BMW appears to be methodically working on improvements to make the bike more competitive. With Corser they have a proven development rider with unquestioned skills to run at the front. Basically, if it isn't in the lead pack it is the bike not the rider. However, I still wonder if BMW has what it takes to create a bike from scratch, build a race team, and have the tenacity to stick it out for another season or two of mid-pack results. Watching Aprilia run near the front from Qatar must be somewhat humbling and frustrating for the Bavarians. Corser is padding his retirement account, he isn't going anywhere.

I really hope he is on a top bike (Aprilia?) next year, so no one can make excuses for his inconsistency. It must be tough to root for Shakey, sometimes brilliant, sometimes rubbish.
