Completely wrong
Hamilton would not have got any points if it wasnt for TWO safety car periods. So yes he did get a lot of luck
He hadnt been on the tyres THAT long, so I very much doubt he had found the cliff that quickly.
Watch the video, JB was clearly held up by a several seconds by the pair of them, he (relatively) shot off infront once he got past. Not as quickly as LH obviously or a RBR would have (for instance) but it was pretty obvious they wrecked his final position
Wow, what an over the top and completely expected reply full of utter nonsense.
Look at what you quoted, now tell me where I said Hamilton didn't have luck and wouldn't have gotten points without the safety cars... go on, I dare you, wait I specifically said he DID get lucky. I specifically said it because people didn't mind that he got a slice of luck because his tyre blowing was incredibly bad luck. For Webber, his team screwed up, it wasn't outside forces, it was their fault, they made a mistake, could have killed a cameraman(or plenty of other people in the pit lane) and then got luck.
Please try and read.
As for tyres Button started at 94.2 for his first fast lap after pitting, then from lap 56 didn't get below a 95.98.
Its also worth pointing out that Button's "bad" lap 58 he was 1.3 seconds slower than the lap before, Hamilton was 1.1 seconds slower than the lap before, he gained precisely 2/10ths over the back markers, with better tyres and more traction in the tyres he did a 95.28 vs Buttons 97.14. But the amount he lost ONLY over backmarkers was tiny, he had slowed, he was slowing with 6 laps to go and he lost VERY little extra over Hamilton due to the back markers, with worse tyres, less traction that isn't even slightly surprising is it.
He was 2-3 seconds a lap slower in the last 6 laps of that stint than the first 6 laps..... I was also defending Button, it wasn't his fault, you will take longer to gain on people, longer to pass and have less passing points(as it becomes more difficult to take around corners).

You can compare the two drivers laps without anyone elses, it shows a clear trend of Button's laps both going up in times and a noticeable increase, you can also clearly show that Hamilton had slower laps when he was held up by the same traffic.
You can also look at others times, like you can have a look at the Lotus's and their quite disgustingly consistent lap times over their stints on softs(awesome tyre wear).
In fact if you look at other drivers, Hulk and Rosberg on the final stint with essentially the same stint as Button, neither went out and did a 94.2 on the first lap and neither showed such a ramp up of lap times and both finished doing faster laps in the last 4-5 laps. You could potentially infer that Button came out, did a WAY too fast lap and hurt the tyres while others, including Hamilton did some easier laps and kept their lap times much better.. so maybe we can blame Button.
What is clear is, Button wasn't held up significantly more than Hamilton, on both drivers worse traffic lap Button lost 2/10ths more than Button, which is no less than expected(infact for me, much lower) considering his tyres were going. If anyone wants to suggest that Button losing 1.3 seconds over backmarkers and Hamilton losing 1.1 seconds was the reason he gained over 9 seconds and took his place... go ahead, whoever does will sound demented though.
We can also CLEARLY see from the lap times that at no time did Button lose "several seconds" because he never went more than 1.3seconds slower than the previous lap time in that period.
