    I'm talking about communication to his engineers and within the team.
    Honestly, who the **** cares about the media?
    The only thing you need to be good with the media is handling controversy and keeping a conservative stance. Ie, don't be a Damon Hill in his Williams days!

    Just finished watching the replay of Button Watch..sorry the Grand Prix.

    Awesome track..just a pity about the biased commentary. Almost as bad as watching the NRL GF with the Parra bias! Sterlo was the only one who should have real bias but he was the best out of them...Gus Gould is a shocker!!!

    Exciting finish...quick question though.. Shouldn't the Renault backmarker have been pushed through past the safety car to join at the back?

    Cheers,

    Jayse.

    I agree 100% about the commentary.

    I also wondered the same thing with the Renault. I thought it was standard practice to let the backmarker in the front group through so they don't interfere with the racing. *shrug*

    Yes usually lapped cars are allowed to overtake. Not sure why they didnt? Might have been because the track was still being cleared?

    From the results of Brazil qualifying I'd say no and that it will go right down to the wire.
    I'm leaning towards Rubens for world champion now actually. Button is choking massively and Vettel is just too far out.

    yes. Rubens is the guy to beat and a chance to clinch the chapionship. But i think it will be good to watch Vettel and Jensen, know that they will be racing next to each other from the start. I hope Mark win this race.
