Fantastic champions drive from Jenson Button to deservedly get the title. His overtaking was sublime and he got the job done!

Thanks for posting IRL information. I don’t get versus and have a hard time finding race recaps as detailed as yours. I’m also interested in MotoGP and F1 and have just started a similar (but much less detailed) blog. Yours is interesting and informative. Thanks for being a good role model.

of course jimmy boy won the brick again. nascar wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m through watching scripted racing. this is worse than f1. poor montoya should have stayed in f1.. he’s a foreigner and nascar won’t let him win.. unless it’s a warm fuzzy story line that will increase ratings! you all have fun watching the newest, biggest soap opera.. I think i’d rather watch golf.. or maybe lawn bowling!

Comment on F1: Round 4 – Sakhir, Bahrain – 26 April by andrewlewin

Good question! I’ve been a bit reluctant to say that – there’s a long way to go, lots could change, and the relative form of the teams is changing from race to race.

But that’s why this race seemed really significant to me: the ability to win when they didn’t seem to have the pace, they didn’t have pole, and they really had to work for it. And it all came together, partly with ‘luck’ but mainly through the solid foundations that really win titles. So I’m much more of a believer about Button/Brawn winning both titles now than I was 24 hours ago. Certainly the constructors is looking VERY good already.

But “anything can happen in Formula 1, and it usually does” as the great Murray Walker used to say.

In your blog you say “When you have luck on such firm foundations as that, then you have ‘luck’ that can take you all the way to a championship.”

I totally agree. Do you reckon it will be a Brawn GP clean sweep of the two championships then?
