Jenson Button takes an astonishing victory, on what becomes known as the longest day in Formula 1™ history.
The race breaks a few records, becoming the longest ever Grand Prix at four hours, four minutes and 39 seconds and the race with the most safety car deployments – six.
Button eventually wins the race by overtaking Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull on the last lap, having already made 33 passes in the race.
The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes driver needs every last drop of skill and effort to get in front on a rain-soaked day, having initially dropped down to 18th place.
From the spray of standing water to the spray of champagne, an amazing event and a great race from Jenson Button.
