Button's managed to stay in F1, whereas Junqueira has been so-so in CART and hasn't been able to jump to F1. Furthermore, Junqueira's ex-CART teammate, Sebastien Bourdais, did manage to go from CART to F1, and has been able to hang in there for a few seasons now.

fair enough... but 4yrs in F1 he won one race... and didnt have a ride after honda folded.. but then brawn opened up shop a month before the season....

only reason he prob had a ride was to keep a british man in there... there were articles how the british people were disaponted in button.. and then hammilton came along and someone to be proud of... but let me say i cant stand hammilton... i like button over hammilton anyday....

before this season he was always in 5-10th postion... never showed any skills....

dont get me wrong he has talent, everyone in F1 does otherwise they wouldnt be there... but where was it in the last 4yrs... its not like honda team he was on was total crap....
