Jenson Button win his first Grand Prix in Hungary

Just finish watching F1 Hungarian Grand Prix won by Jenson Button of all people!

The whole race the first place has been changing hands a couple of time. First it was Kimi Raikonen blazing through the pack with speed and determination. But, then it happened. His car gave him problem and he's out of the race again after leading the pack. Boy! He must be the cursed of all the drivers. He just can't finish the race!

I wonder if he's ever going to be an F1 champion!

Then it was Alonso turn. He took over the first place from Raikonen and showed his class to hold the first place almost 3/4 of the race but after a pit stop his car suddenly gave him problem with a suspect tyre nut coming off!

So, an angry Alonso had to give up the race and up step Jenson Button on his way to his first podium place ever in F1. Everyone was wondering if he could finish the race without any problem besetting the other drivers. Where was Michael Schumacher in all this? Well, the 7 time F1 champion saw his chance when Alonso was out of the race and tried his best to catch up with Button. The problem is his using an intermediate tyres and with 9 lap to go there's no possible way for him to change his tyre to a dry one. Too bad with 3 lap to go he's car gave up on him and he had to almost wobbled to the pit. I thought he was just going to change his tyre but then they started to push the car inside the pit garage and that was it. He's finally out!

From then on it was up to Jenson to cruise to his first win ever in the F1 grand prix and cruises he did. It's a proud day for the British with the national anthem being played. Jenson was of course elated with his win. Who won't? With all the accidents, incident etc.

I'm quite dissappointed that Michael didn't manage to win championship points seeing that Alonso didn't. Alonso if you don't know is the current F1 champion taking over from Michael Shumacher who won the couple of Championship. Michael is the closest to Alonso to fight for the championship so if he loses this race without a point Alonso will still be at the top.

Anyway, it was a good race won by Jenson and I think I enjoyed watching it today. There's so much happening that I was glued to the Tv wondering who'll win!

The rain is the star of the show. It gave so much problem to the drivers that the leaders keep changing hand and from the start the car was all over the place from the slippery track. Quick thinking, good driving skill is the order of the day but I guess patience is a virtue and Jenson prove it.

Well, that's my post for the day. Hope you enjoyed the race as I did if you watch it too.

Good day or night or whatever!
