Button wins again

Jenson Button has won the second race of the F1 season in Malaysia.

Here in Monaco we're celebrating the fact that local resident Jenson Button claimed another victory yesterday at the Malaysian Grand Prix. Only half the usual points were awarded to the winners because less than 75% of the intended distance had been covered. The race had to be canceled after just 31 laps due to torrential rain.

More electric vehicles planned

Button wins Australian Grand Prix

Monaco resident Jenson Button has won the first F1 race of the season.

The Formula One season started yesterday with the Australian Grand Prix held at the Albert Park track in Melbourne. Before the race on Sunday Button was considered to be something of an outside favourite for this year's championship. After such an auspicious start, we're all hoping that the young Brit, resident in Monaco since 2000 will excel in this year's Grand Prix. And it would be really special if he won in Monaco itself, where last year he finished a disappointing 11th.
