Why is Button so strongly fancied tomorrow when he is 5th on the grid ? i take onboard Subs point about weights, but then why is barrichello so easily dismissed ? Because he's Ferrari-trained to let his team mate win. I'm very new to this sport, i realize drivers do drive to team orders, but would Barrichello really be expected to 'move over' after only one and a half GP's ?

Ignore the clowns. Stop trying to bring the Branneys back into it.

In 1998, Coulthard was ordered to allow McLaren team-mate Haikkanen though for the win in the first race of the season.

You know very well that was pre-arranged and agreed by both drivers that whoever was leading at the second pit stop would win the race - in that race both McLaren cars lapped the all rest of the drivers.

Barrichello has a tendancy to be erratic, increasing his chances of a DNF, but Button has a very smooth driving style. Ignore the clowns. Schumi, was Barichello being erratic in Austria 2002 then? Or was he kicking Schumacher's arse so badly, that Schumacher went crying to the Toad and made sure Barichello was ordered to let him pass.

No it's the only way that Haikkanen could win World Championships. EDIT: Haikkanen was bloody boring. I still suspect the bloke was an android. Sub, in comparison, Bjarne Pedersen is Mr. Personailty. ;D

Nothing at all to do with Michael having won four out of the five races previous then? And stop trying to wind me up by bringing Schumacher into it when it's nothing to do with the question. This is a black card situation, genghis, end of conversation.

Hatcham - but you forget he dropped down at the start of the last race but still won it. I imagine the three cars at the front are short-fuelled - his main opponent could well prove to be Barichello.
