that was so GREAT!! i'm very happy for him! a deseved win! =)
excatly the opposite for Button... he's similar to Trulli, thay can do good races but they lack that Champ-factor which Kimi, Alonso Montoya and Shumierda have...

I concur.

Jenson Button's car was under investigation for being underweight at the end of the race. His car was found to be underweight without fuel however after hearing the explanation from the BAR team and reviewing all available documentation the stewards decided no further action to be taken. His 3rd place finish is confirmed

In any other sport ie, boxing, horse racing, and in V8 supercars, if you are underweight you are out. I think the stewards stuffed up, and their bosses, the FIA, have now said so

If button is disqualified,would he be allowed to change his engine without a penalty??

Since when did u started getting so pissed,Julian?Chill dude!!!

AH,if Button is disqualified,Webber gets a point rgt?

But i agree,if he's doing something which is not allowed,he should be heavily punished!!!!

Imagine this forum ,if it would have been Michael's car

No, Kapel, if someone, say Button, in this case, is driving an illegal vehicle, and is in a position on the race track, thanks to that illegal vehicle, it affects THE OTHER DRIVERS STRATEGIES, THE OTHER TEAMS STRATEGIES, AND THE OUTCOME OF THE RACE!!!!!!

Quite true, actually looking back at the race,if Michael wouldnt have been stuck behind Button,he would have won the race

Can a team be banned from participating for a few races if their cars are found with irregularities and team personel hidding the truth???

Not only the Chassis,the engine as well as Webber's mistake(i think 2 or 3) cost them a nice finish.

But Nick didnt do well either

Season doesnt look good for them

Kappy, in my opinion, what you call mistakes, I call bloody brilliant ability to keep such an evil pig on the black stuff. I f you taped the race, go back and have a look at the in- car film of webber, listen to the engine, and marry that to the hands on wheel before Sato got past. That was 12 tenths! and to me justifies my belief in his ability. Can't wait for the Sauber BMW Williams combo next season. Bundy reckons that Button will be in the same team, and Bundy is not something to take chances with

Julian,never doubted Webber's talent.N yes taking that position back from Sato was brilliant.

I said,its a pity for a good driver to be in a wrong car.
Next year hopefully,BMW-SAUBER-WEBBER combo. ( Narain his partner
