In case nobody noticed, Jensen Button secured the F1 Drivers Championship of 2010 yesterday at Interlagos.
Brawn GP secured the Constructors Championship for 2010 at the same time.
Fairytale wins all round with Button, at long last, having a car that allowed him to demonstrate his ability and Brawn capitalising on the perseverance of Honda to achieve what would have been inevitable under Honda and realised under Ross Brawn. Hats off to all concerned.
Massive well done to a British team, British driver and British Principle.
The other benefit is having to sit through only one national anthem before the celebrations.
British chammpions back-to-back.

Boy did he want it in that race. Really fantastic to watch after the last few 'too careful' drives.

Was a fantastic race to watch, the first 10 mins or so i was glued to the sofa.
Great win for Brawn GP, Ross Brawn must be on top of the world, im really pleased for him. Wouldn't be suprised if Ross got a call from the Heads at Honda scratching their heads!
Never been a supporter of Jenson Button however his driving yesterday was fantastic, a real credit to himself and the whole team.
A mention should be given to Kamui Kobayashi for his first outing. Despite having some debatable methods of defensive driving against Jenson and others he really impressed alot of people.
Really looking forward to the final race at Yas Marina circuit, sadly it wont be the championship decider however it will be a great specticle, that place is incredible.

It was an exciting race and one I managed to stay awake for. The trouble with Button is, he's too good to look exciting and until now hasn't had a car to do much challenging at the front. I imagine his situation this year has felt so alien he's had to undergo a massive wake-up call and learn how to handle it.
The new Jap guy Kobayashi looks a bit of a sensation, or will be once he gets his head around where he is
Good to see Massa up and about. Hopefully there'll be some interesting rivalry at Ferrari next year. Cue McLaren/Hamilton scenario round 2
