Button wins Turkish Grand Prix

For lovers of Formula 1 and fans of suspense, the outcome of this Turkish Grand Prix is ​​as disappointing as Vettel's pole was attractive. But now, everything seems to be smiling on the Briton this season. And even when starting second on the starting line, circumstances work to his advantage. From the first lap, without asking anything from his biggest rival, Button saw the poleman, Sebastian Vettel, go wide at the exit of the corner and give him the lead of the race.

A lead in the race that the world championship leader never let go of, accumulating fast laps to prance in the lead. Then, when Brawn has problems, it is Rubens Barrichello who takes all the problems into his own hands. Bad start, stuck in traffic, hooked during difficult overtaking, stopped ten laps from the end of the race due to a gearbox problem, the Brazilian experienced a Grand Prix bordering on a nightmare. And his teammate's victory only gives him less and less chance of also experiencing victory.

Sebastian Vettel, who started on pole, may regret his mistake on the first lap but also his three-stop strategy, which only gave him a third place. Very little consolation after the hopes born at the end of the qualifying session. Very fast, Jenson Button then strived to string together explosive times to keep the two away. Red Bull, who complete the podium.

Behind, Jarno Trulli and Nico Rosberg confirmed their good intentions by scoring important points. Starting in 9th position, the German put in a good performance and was ahead of Felipe Massa, the only driver Ferrari to enter the Top 8. Cruel disillusionment for Räikkönen and Alonso, who finished outside the points despite their position in the first eight on the grid.
