Schumi is not my fav driver but his dominance is not simply because of his tech director...Of course your welcome to disagree justhelp us slow minds keep up with your reasoning, your first post sounded a little biggotted.

No doubt about it. I hate the fucker. Arrogant, dirty, and self centered. But, a damn good driver. Planets aligned, and dude won a lot of races with a great team. Would he have won as much without Brawn? Hell no. Would Brawn have won as much without Schumi? Nope. I don't think anyone is stupid enough to say that Button is the best driver in F1, but there he is atop the points. In F1, the car is much more of a factor than in other motorsports.

I agree with all that. Happy for Jenson though, he,s paid his dues and deserves his time on top...

Button's a class act, and deserves some success. I'm just bummed that they took a month off. Nascar doesn't do it for me, and Indy may as well fold the tents up.

Nascar bites big ones. Indy Cars never had my attention like F1 did. I remember watching Senna, Mansell, Hill, and thinking damn what a great sport....
