bajo39 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2005 Honda is Jenson Button's 'best and only chance' at a Formula One title. That's the claim of former team owner Eddie Jordan, who said the Englishman's constant team-swapping and mind-changing was beginning to rule out any future title bid. 'In all their years, BAR have never won a race,' Ireland's Jordan said, 'but Honda have a completely different mindset. 'I should know - they brought me my first win.' EJ, then, has a simple tip for Button, the 26-year-old Playboy - 'stay glued to the Honda dream'. 'Jenson should forget other teams,' Jordan added. 'He ruled himself out of many winning teams (but) now that Honda have bought BAR, this team are his best and only chance of winning the title.' I don't think Jenson will be a WDC with Honda as I don't see the Japanese team producing a dominant machine, sufficient to overcome his deficit of ability to KR and FA. However, I think the possibility exists that he could get such an outstanding machine at Ferrari where the number one drive will undoubtably come available soon. Your thoughts?

Vas 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2005 Button is in a dream world. While he was fantasizing a win, lot of drivers overtaken him. He has to beat all these guys to win a race. Let him win a race first, then ..... Honda could only be marginaly helpful. With Ferrari, Renault, Mclaren and even Toyota there it will be uphill task for them to dominate the F1. Not in the near future. Some miracle must happen. I want Button to win so that there wil be one more driver tasted blood, driving mad to win and not make up the line up. WDC, not with Honda.

Jem of the Shire 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2005 Wasnt Ralf ordered to let Damon through?...Im all for team orders, so thats fine in my books No, Damon qualified 3rd, overtook both mclarens at the re-start and led until MS overtook him. MS famously collided with DC so Hill retook the lead, Ralf was never in front of Hill. Ralf (when catching Hill) was ordered to hold back and not try and race his team-mate, because 1-2 was a miracle for Jordan in a season that had been extremely disappointing up to that point Button is in a dream world. While he was fantasizing a win, lot of drivers overtaken him. He has to beat all these guys to win a race. Let him win a race first, then ..... Honda could only be marginaly helpful.

Fortunately for these other guys you mention, they've been provided with great cars early in their careers. Button is sadly having to wait for such machinery!
