I only have one thing to add about JPM:
You know its bad when my sweet little wife (who is NOT into autoracing all that much, but watches with me just to be sporting), remarks after a JPM interview: "That guy whines like a little bitch!" :lol:

[B]Now while I am no BAR team mechanic, I have to agree with the race commentators when they said that todays F1 engines are all computer controlled so the driver can't blow the engine anymore. The computer prevents that.

But ... upshifts are fully manual this season (they were automatic in 2003).
I'm sure the team can see (and knows) exactly what Sato is doing, but part of me just has a hard time pegging his engine reliability all down to bad luck.
His long, unplanned for pitstop may have had some effect, but I'm still under the (possibly false) impression that he's a bit harder on his engine than Button.
...just my uninformed opinion.
