Well either way, it certainly makes things interesting. Wonder if McLaren will stick with the equal treatment to both drivers and let them race each other?

I think they will do.

"Real" competition isnt from a bloke that took 7 years to get his first win in Mark weber
and Hamilton being the exception Rookies like Vettel dont challenge for titles he may have finished 2nd but he never put Button under pressure.......

and Rubens Barrichello should be british he's always the runner up isnt he......

would you fancy Button for the title next year if he stays at Brawn?because Mclaren wont get caught with their pants down again and Ferrari will have Alonso.... so when world champions are competing against him and breathing down his neck every step of the way lets see...

Took Button 5 or 6 didn't it?

They've always claimed they will.

I'm half wondering if there will be a repeat of the Prost/Senna antics.

I'd be surprised - I don't think either Button or Hamilton has quite the ego that Prost and Senna had in their prime.

New points system that awards the top 10 and new tyre rules ahead of the new season.

The same points system as MotoGP near enough. The double diffuser is to do with what Brawn GP did last year I think even though it was legal.

Read today that McLaren have managed to get the time to change all 4 wheels down to 2.5seconds.

Given there is no refuling, I hope there will be more overtaking on the track rather than in the pit lane as seemed to have become more common recently.

Given the new points that will hopefully encourage going for a win rather than setling for 2nd I may even give the series a watch this year.
