Being someone that studied the lap times for the whole race I find it amazing that you can assume Lewis would have won without the pen and wrong tyre choice.
Apart from dropping down to 7 secs behind at the start Button was actually faster in the dry conditions over each stint. Ok Lewis was ahead but after 8 or so laps Button was 1 sec a lap faster due to Lewis ruining his tyres.
I favour neither driver and think Lewis was a little unlucky to get a penalty but please people stop talking of luck and Button winning because of drivers throwing it away. It shows a complete disrespect for the winning driver and actually a lack of understanding of the race.
