Hungarina GP Results:
1. J Button
2. S Vettel
3. F Alonso

Jenson Button wins in the rain, again. Like Martin Brundle said "The man with a plan in the rain."

Jenson is back in the hunt for 2nd place, although I doubt that he can keep up with the other 3 - Alonso, Hamilton and Webber.

BTW, the big news for F1 in America, is that the US Grand Prix has been moved to November due to searing temperatures in June, in Texas. I'm sorry but that is terrible timing.....November in Texas is Football season - 'Horns, High-school, 'dem Cowboys - not very well timed, if you ask me.

another great race! tyres + inconsistent weather created the perfect amount of drama ...

if McLaren had to win, I'm really glad it was Jenson ...

Louise Hamilton's attitude was summed up when, after he'd spun his car, he deliberately turned into clearly visible oncoming traffic (DiResta); should have got a stop-go penalty, not just a drive-through ...

shame for Nico that his team's erroneous tyre strategy cost him a couple of spots due to the extra pit-stop ... still, he showed he remains the best driver who's not driving a car capable of winning the championship ... Mercedes need to give him a car that can match those top 3 teams ...

...Nico... ... Mercedes need to give him a car that can match those top 3 teams ...

Thatès not happening anytime soon. Although, looking back now, I think he was probably right to leave Williams.

haha

lewis hamilton penalized again, again, and again this year ... his immaturity in going over the the racing aggression limit is pathetic ...

his teammate jenson is a complete contrast, and is all class ... another cool race, and into second place in the drivers championship ...
