seemed to have the quicker package. very fortunate considering the richest man on earth (who is mexican like checo) was in the paddock talking business with the mclaren big wigs. how would he have felt about sponsoring mclaren if the mexican driver was soundly beaten by jb??

i suppose he would have felt the same way that certain people sponsoring a certain red car would feel if a brazilian and not a spaniard began outperforming their teammate.

i have quite the imagination don't i???!!!

Are you suggesting McLaren turned down Jensons car?

Its only what Red Bull do to Webber, or switch his KERS off :p

Webber's car has the KERS operated remotely via a series of IEEE 802.11 protocols. It's either plugged into the system to have its telemetry checked via a series of USB connections which puts it on the LAN or more commonly, via WiFi which means that he has the WAN version of KERS.
Or to give it the full title, Webber's car is managed by Wide Area Network Kinetic Energy Recovery System. :D

I don't remember ever seeing Button defending as aggresively as he did against Perez last sunday. Usually he's fair, or even a bit soft when being overtaken. I think it might be an indication that Button is feeling quite threatened, as he sees that Perez is getting comfortable in the car. Still early days, but it makes me think back to when Kimi came in to drive along side DC. Button's days as a #1 may be numbered.

If there is any way of starting a more pointless thread than this I'm yet to hear it.
