Silverstone 2009 - back down on earth
I really shouldn't be that disappointed. Jenson couldn't possibly win every race of the season. Or even finish on the podium every time. And coming in 6th is not a disaster. Far from it.
They had to have a problem or a bit of bad luck sometime. But did it have to be Silverstone of all places? Did it have to be his home GP? *sighs*
At least they know what the problem is and Ruben's 3rd place as well as Jenson's amazing last stint prove that, in general, the car is still quick. Because how much fun where those last few laps? Too bad they weren't enough to get past Rosberg and Massa. And hey, when you look at it that way, the podium was only 5 seconds away in the end.
Jenson pretty much lost that one to the tyres and Trulli's bad start. And the fact that I think of this race as "lost" just shows how spoiled I'm already.
And let's not forget: Congrats to Mark for another podium.
Results:
1. Sebastian Vettel
2. Mark Webber
3. Rubens Barichello
4. Felipe Massa
5. Nico Rosberg
6. Jenson Button
7. Jarno Trulli
8. Kimi Räikkönen
And now let's leave this race behind us and wait for the German one in three weeks where Jenson will spoil Vettel's party. ;)
