DC's wing mirrors?
Does he have any? Just re-watched sundays race and DC said after his incident with Jenson that Jens must have been coming out of the pits as he didn't see him at all in his wing mirrors! Well, Jenson made his stop 2 or 3 laps earlier, plus he was well on the racing side of the pit lane exit and after going back into the pits after the incident, the classification showed that he's made only 2 stops! So does DC need.....
a)New mirrors b)to look in his existing ones c)glasses Very curious. |

All three. I must admit that I thought it was a very silly incident. Whilst JB was entitled to attack exiting the pits (it was for position, after all), he probably shouldn't have lunged as he did. THAT BEING SAID, why on earth did DC turn in on him?? Sure, he said that he couldn't see him, but HOW?? And surely he must have been expecting JB to come out??
Very silly. Six of one. |

I think Button was valid in making a stab and paid a fair price. That's racing. If people don't run the gauntlet, we all set our calanders to 2002 and take a nice, long... sleep.
There's absolutely no pleasing you peeps. If DC had of seen him and backed off just a smidgeon and tried to stay on his outside, you'd have called it the most daring move since Raikkonen on Schuey in Australia. Yaaaaawn. Ah, makes me sleepy just thinking about 2002. |

Yep a racing incident. It could have gone either way.

The incident was nothing more than 50/50. DC could have given him racing room, but then again Button was probably coming from too far back.
They are always difficult situations to judge. But for DC to say he didn't see him for two laps is strange. Maybe he just wasn't looking in them!
