Button in the Schumi-stress

Istanbul - No, Jenson Button (29) Schumi has no chin. He does not even go as hard as Schumacher, but very soft.
Nevertheless, his sixth victory in the seventh race of the season was another one in the best of Schumi-style.

Critics will say: The're sitting in the fastest car. But in this team-mate Barrichello also sits. And as you can make a fool of himself than most experienced pilot in the fastest car in front of world public opinion, to the joy of the Brazilians proved his critics ample. Button is different, Button's really matured into a future world champion.
And there are again parallels to Schumi. He was also vehement in his early years, first met in time, waiting for the moment to attack. Button, he offered himself early in Istanbul, thanks to Sebastian Vettel (21) driving mistake in corner 9, he resorted to merciless. And went out in the sequence so far ahead that it also attacks Vettel after his early first pit-stop is not pushed into a mistake. And do not forget: In the last third of the race by a comfortable lead button remained highly concentrated.
All this makes the new button to the Dominator. But the sensational success of the Fast-Unemployment also has its downsides. And as he himself calls Schumi as an example: "When you are at the top, so a lot at stake. It is associated with security is more stressful than when you stand back. I'm sure, were the years as a champion for Michael the stressful period of his life. Meanwhile, I understand why this guy has resigned. "
