Hamilton has the better car so should finish above Button.
Think Kimi will win the championship though.

Hamilton is in a different league to Button. Credit where credit is due, Jenson is the smoothest driver since Prost, this played a big part in his win in the damp at Hungary, but how long has he been in the sport and he hasn't came anywhere near to challenging for the championship. Damon Hill had more success and he got slated for it! People argue theat Hill had the best car, but it was a race winning car that Hill developed, something that Button has failed to do. He sometimes looked like a good team leader at BAR and Honda but he was paired with Sato. Anybody would seem fast against him! The tables are tuning since Barrichello has come along.. In a good car, I think Jens would get average results, a win here and there, a bit like Coulthard. Button has always been over hyped. He is the Tim Henman of F1. A good driver, but not an exceptional one. Certainly not on the same level as Raikkonnen, Alonso or Hamilton.
Hamilton is a phenomenal talent. Round the outside of a 2 times world champion on the first corner of his first Grand Prix? That was just brilliant! (I predicted this in a dream, I should have put money on it, Damn!!)
His drive at Turkey in GP2 last year, from the back of the field to 2nd place was sensational. It reminded me of Senna at Donnington. The fact that he dominated the GP2 series last year is further proof of his ability, as is Alonso admitting that it was not easy to beat him. And don't forget that he was signed by an F1 team boss at the age of 13!
Even if they had the same car, Button wouldn't even compare.

I would suggest that Hamilton has far more talent, and apart from anything else, the Honda is just awful at the moment.
If there is a personal difference, I would suggest that Button, (great driver that he is), is a guy who likes to drive but also likes to party and have a good time.
Hamilton is different.....focused, perhaps obsessive, and who probably gets more enjoyment out of winning than out of anything else in his life.
That's why I regard Hamilton as the new Ayrton Senna.

I think Hamilton will finish top of the brits and I think davidson will outdo button too.
If DC matches to Webbers pace and Button/ Honda remainwhere they are then Button is likely to end up bottom of the brit pack.
Definitely looks like we are going to get a better show this year than in previous years.

Hamilton by virtue of the better car. He still has some evil tracks to master and no-one, not even the greats, are mistake free in their freshman season.
Button missed the boat and is stuck with a stagnant team with big money but lack of passion, he will have a worse season than Coulthard who is looking more like a beach bum everyday, good for him I say!
Raikkonen for the title!

Hamilton without a doubt Button is in a crap car and does not seem to have the ambition to do better.

Hamilton will be on top for sure. Button's car is more like a truck!!!

I like Button but his car is crap (what the heck happened to Honda???). Hamilton is charged up with optimism and is in a far better car so he'll definitely surpass Button this season.

Hamilton. Who would actually say button?

Hamilton definately. If the Austrailian GP was any indication of how Button is going to do this year.
