I obviously hope that Vettel wins, but if a Brawn driver has to win I want it to be Rubino. Still hoping for a Vettel surge. There are a lot of ifs in this season and I think Vettel would have benefited greatly if his luck had been different. Button couldn't have had much better luck this season, everything has gone his way for the most part except for the DNF at Spa and the penalty in Japan.

Disagree, he who gets the most points DESERVES it. He just happened to build up his monsterous lead at the beginning of the season.

Why is that more or less worthy than an end of season push to make up a margin?

that would make sense if everyone was driving spec cars. at the beginning of the season, brawn basically blindsided everyone else with the diffuser. as the season progressed, the other teams, esp mclaren and red-bull caught up. at this rate he may well lose by a point or two if things go wrong like hamilton in 07. I'm a brawn fan and I still hope they win constructors and i hope either button or rubens wins WDC but I can't say they will in dominant fashion.

good race. i still want to see Rubins win the championship, not going to happen now, but maybe he will get to win Brazil for the first time. the fans will go crazy if he does

+1 i hope he wins in brasil.

Ferrari should hire vettel to partner Alonzo :D

He already signed with Red Bull for at lest another year. I don't remember if it was a multi-year deal or not.

button doesn't deserve to be WDC with this showing..

Vettel did what Vettel is capable of. Very smooth inputs.

I was pissed to see Toyota do so well.

Did anyone see the footage of Buemi's crash during qualifying that was taken along the fence? He seemed to go on forever.

awesome race. qualifying was crazy, and the race toped it off. although i would have liked Rubens to finish a bit higher

[bwanac]

i am rooting for vettel as unlikely as it may be.

[kishg]

button doesn't deserve to be WDC with this showing.. great job by vettel. s'pore is more for $$ than anything else, just like everything else in F1. It draws tv audience and lines bernie's pockets.

[z31maniac]

What a wild fucking quali session! Heiki made a few desperate moves during the race didn't he?

Glad to see Vettel win. Button is just barely holding on at this point. Geez.

Well done by Toyota to get Trulli out there in front of Hamilton.

How about Webber - totally out of it - horrid day, and then he sets fast lap . . .

And how about the BS that came up in the pre-race - someone is bitching about Massa maybe doing a private test in an 07 or 08 car. Seriously . . .

No wonder I couldn't find it this morning...

That sucks, I missed it....

FWIW, I like the Singapore Race, I thought the track looked good and I love the night racing thing.... of course, I wasn't driving .... so who knows...

[Jean]

Much better race than the last one, they should just drop Singapore...that track is horrible, it's all show... none of the drivers like it anyway lol.
