2011 Hungarian Grand Prix. They started racing in 19 80s but it was

:01:17.:01:22.

not until 2006 when they had their first wet race and we are not used

:01:22.:01:26.

to this soaking wet haddock. It's very rare and rare to have one man

:01:26.:01:30.

dominate the season like this, not since Michael Schumacher's day and

:01:30.:01:35.

that is what Sebastian Vettel is doing. 216 points on the board.

:01:35.:01:41.

Mark Webber, his closest rival, Lewis Hamilton in third I'm looking

:01:41.:01:45.

for back-to-back wins. And the constructors championship... Very

:01:45.:01:50.

much Red Bull. They will be very confident about winning that. As

:01:50.:01:54.

for the drivers, a lot depends on what happens as we race towards the

:01:54.:01:59.

end of the season. All the action from the race in a moment but first,

:01:59.:02:06.

here is Ted Kravitz with qualifying... You might doubt think

:02:06.:02:12.

it looking at his points but by his standards, Sebastian Vettel a

:02:12.:02:15.

season worst finisher 4th in the last race and qualifying which

:02:15.:02:20.

showed he was starting to lose his nerve as his rivals closed in. The

:02:20.:02:24.

world champion's first opponent is his team-mate, but Mark Webber's

:02:24.:02:29.

DRS did not work on the straight and his Cerys system was on the

:02:29.:02:34.

blink, winning only six. We had some issues in the middle of that

:02:34.:02:40.

session but we have it back. It is the overall grip. I need to look

:02:40.:02:46.

through this but it is a big step compared to the last few races.

:02:46.:02:49.

years ago Felipe Massa was lying in a Budapest hospital with head

:02:49.:02:54.

injuries after being hit by a spring from another car. He has

:02:54.:02:58.

said qualified his team-mate for the first time in 17 races, showing

:02:58.:03:02.

the only lasting sign of the crash - Asgard about his eyebrows.

:03:03.:03:07.

will be difficult, it is tough on the tyres and strategy is very

:03:07.:03:15.

important. There is quite a big difference but if we're to put

:03:15.:03:21.

Sebastian Vettel in trouble, there is more hope for McLaren. McLaren

:03:21.:03:25.

have looked fast all weekend and Lewis Hamilton at a crucial mistake

:03:25.:03:28.

on a final attempt, costing him pole position. Jensen Button is

:03:28.:03:32.

right behind him, third, but his mind was more on catering

:03:33.:03:40.

arrangements. I love cake, and hoping someone will give me one. I

:03:40.:03:44.

went for dinner last night and the boys handsome cake, which was nice

:03:44.:03:49.

and then cake in the hotel. I am hoping for another today. Iran wide

:03:49.:03:56.

at one stage. I lost all of the advantage I had. I had that huge

:03:56.:04:01.

oversteer. I think I'm was have a tent up. I don't know how global

:04:01.:04:05.

stardom the opposite side of the grid. We will see how we do.

:04:05.:04:08.

Sebastian Vettel, looking for answers as to why Red Bull has been

:04:08.:04:13.

off the pace, pointing the finger at some recent upgrades. Sebastian

:04:13.:04:16.

Vettel had found his rear suspension hurting rather than

:04:16.:04:22.

helping so reverted back to the old spectres occasions. --

:04:22.:04:25.

specifications. He was back on pole position and the famous finger on

:04:25.:04:32.

display. I am pleased with today, especially because the boys burnt

:04:32.:04:36.

the curfew and they did not get much sleep. They look very happy

:04:36.:04:42.

today so I think they will look even happier now. We will see what

:04:42.:04:50.

we can do. Sebastian Vettel, on pole position with Lewis Hamilton

:04:50.:04:54.

and Jenson Button surrounding and relate to attack in to turn one.

:04:54.:04:58.

Felipe Massa and Alonso ready for the battle with Mark Webber, Adrian

:04:58.:05:07.

Sutil in eighth place. Kobayashi was that qualified by Perez but

:05:07.:05:09.

it's another disappointing performance from Renault and

:05:09.:05:14.

Williams. Lotus, Virgin and HRT at the back with Sebastien Buemi

:05:14.:05:24.
:05:24.:05:27.

having a penalty for causing a the mantra of all the other drivers.

:05:27.:05:31.

Who has the appetite to take the title fight to the championship

:05:31.:05:39.

leader? The desperate scrabble for grip away from the grid. And we're

:05:39.:05:48.

into the process. They dropped the first and second clutches. Who can

:05:48.:05:54.

get traction? 700 horsepower. It is Sebastian Vettel on the first

:05:54.:05:59.

corner, Hamilton second at the moment. Buttons seems to be holding

:05:59.:06:04.

his nerve. Everybody sliding wide and so far, no contact. Supreme

:06:04.:06:09.

driving. But in his on the inside of Hamilton, turn number two, the

:06:09.:06:15.

best place to be but can he keep his speed? Hamilton on the inside.

:06:15.:06:23.

And he can hold it, look at Rosberg, up into 4th place, she Mecca

:06:23.:06:28.

attacking Rosberg. Up the hill towards turn No. 4, Mercedes flying

:06:28.:06:35.

off the grid, ahead of the Ferrari cars. Mark Webber struggling. Paul

:06:35.:06:40.

di Resta is in 9th place. Sebastian Vettel, but an sideways through to

:06:40.:06:46.

number five. Rosberg handed over. Paul di Resta, head of Adrian Sutil

:06:46.:06:51.

an den Kobayashi, Petrov, Rosberg wide. He will have to yield to

:06:51.:06:59.

Jensen Button. Look at Fernando Alonso, behind Mercedes. This is

:06:59.:07:03.

really a struggle for grip. Sebastian Vettel had an absolute

:07:04.:07:07.

flyer off the line and was under no pressure in the run down to the

:07:07.:07:11.

first corner. Michael Schumacher being passed around the outside by

:07:11.:07:17.

Fernando Alonso, will he maintain this? Braking into turn 12 and he

:07:17.:07:23.

is an teed maintaining that but very tentative. -- is indeed. I

:07:23.:07:29.

thought he had him. They, too, and Schumacher dipped the wheel into

:07:29.:07:33.

this that recur. That was all about pride. Schumacher was not going to

:07:33.:07:39.

be passed on the outside. Can Fernando Alonso find some purchase?

:07:39.:07:44.

Indeed, he can, he heads down the pit straight. Fernando Alonso

:07:44.:07:49.

taking Michael Schumacher. Any which way he can. Schumacher coming

:07:49.:07:56.

back up the inside. Keeping these tyres as good as they can be. When

:07:56.:08:02.

they start overheating it feels like bubblegum on those tyres. A

:08:03.:08:07.

quick run through the field... Sebastian Vettel, Hamilton.

:08:07.:08:11.

Hamilton completely sideways! No traction control, it is about the

:08:11.:08:17.

driver. It looks like rally driving out there! Hamilton on his tail as

:08:17.:08:24.

the going to turn them before. Very close. But in in third, Rosberg,

:08:24.:08:32.

Fernando Alonso, Michael Schumacher in six. Barrichello in the 11th.

:08:32.:08:42.
:08:42.:08:46.

Petrov. Maldonado in 13th and Heidfeld down to 16. Kovaleinen and

:08:46.:08:50.

Perez, all the way down in 19th place. Adrian Sutil, he has gone

:08:50.:09:00.

from eighth all the way down to 20th. Alonso is on the move,

:09:00.:09:02.

quickest on the first sector. And it looks like an incredibly

:09:02.:09:06.

slippery track. The cars are twitching on the pricking. Lewis

:09:06.:09:13.

Hamilton could not get to full partner On the Run out. Incredibly

:09:13.:09:21.

difficult position. On Thursday we saw there is no drainage on these

:09:21.:09:25.

curbs, there is a lot of water, sitting within the gully. They need

:09:25.:09:32.

to watch out. Michael taking a very wide line On the Run into the last

:09:32.:09:39.

corner to get as much dryness as possible. Get the power open.

:09:39.:09:43.

Bull do not have any advantage in these conditions. Sebastian Vettel

:09:43.:09:48.

is under pressure from Hamilton and look at this, also made it past

:09:48.:09:52.

Rosberg and Felipe Massa, side by side! Sebastian Vettel on the

:09:52.:09:59.

inside and Hamilton just getting run out of road. Desperately trying

:09:59.:10:03.

to get some power. He has to down shift into the middle of turn

:10:03.:10:09.

number three, it is so slow and this blind corner, DRS is enabled,

:10:09.:10:13.

Charlie Whiting thinks there is enough grip and safety at there. We

:10:13.:10:17.

have that facility available. Despite them being on intermediate

:10:17.:10:24.

tyres. At this stage we have had Felipe Massa doing the fastest

:10:24.:10:30.

first sector, one second quicker. There is no question that Sebastian

:10:30.:10:34.

Vettel is struggling, this is a replay of the start. Look at that

:10:34.:10:39.

launch. Very unusual to see McLaren being dropped at the start. Jensen

:10:39.:10:43.

Button on the left-hand side, what will he do? Heading for the outside,

:10:43.:10:47.

Felipe Massa, looking to the inside and we can see Mercedes making that

:10:47.:10:52.

great start. So difficult for the drivers. Wheel to wheel action with

:10:53.:10:59.

McLaren. There are glued together. That is for Ferrari lost all that.

:10:59.:11:03.

Ferrari were too cautious. They had no speed through the exit. On board

:11:03.:11:13.
:11:13.:11:14.

with Jensen Button. Not a great start. Deploying the Kers system.

:11:14.:11:18.

The front wheel almost touching the left wheel of Lewis Hamilton. Very

:11:18.:11:24.

little rpm. Once they had got the clutch, they are side by side

:11:24.:11:28.

through the apex, we rejoin the bat at the front. There was something,

:11:28.:11:30.

surely only a matter of time before he finds his way past Sebastian

:11:30.:11:36.

Vettel. Rosberg holding down Fifth Place and Felipe Massa insects.

:11:36.:11:42.

Hamilton up the inside, he has the high ground, Sebastian Vettel round

:11:42.:11:48.

the outside. He will have to cut back and do it. Ferrari going wide

:11:48.:11:55.

and the exhibit her number two. Fernando Alonso has gone wide. --

:11:55.:12:02.

on the exit of turn a number two. Nico Rosberg, up into 4th place.

:12:02.:12:06.

Sebastian Vettel held that on turn number two. Hamilton, he is shaping

:12:07.:12:13.

up, testing him out. I don't think so, he is quicker. And he is just

:12:13.:12:20.

trying to find the grip, this is a replay. Getting wide. On to the

:12:20.:12:25.

painted white line. And he goes for safety. And you can see Rosberg

:12:25.:12:31.

running around the outside. Lucky that he only lost one place. That

:12:31.:12:36.

means Fernando Alonso is losing a lot of time. Five seconds behind

:12:36.:12:45.

the leaders. You can see that dry track beginning, why do they have

:12:45.:12:51.

so little grip? It is the nature of the surface, in GP2 it was an old

:12:51.:12:57.

track this morning, it is leaking out all of the dirt and residue.

:12:57.:13:03.

This is going to be intriguing. You cannot afford to be the first man

:13:03.:13:09.

to early on the slick tyres. This is going to be an absolute nail-

:13:09.:13:13.

biter for strategists. Which Trevor will make the call? Lewis Hamilton

:13:14.:13:18.

positioning himself on the outside, trying to get straight on to that

:13:18.:13:27.

car. Surely he must get alongside Sebastian Vettel? He has gone wide.

:13:27.:13:35.

Hamilton takes the lead. Sebastian Vettel can find no grip. He forces

:13:35.:13:43.

Sebastian Vettel into a mistake. He had the DRS available, down the pit

:13:43.:13:47.

straight into Turn One. We know that McLaren test to be quicker in

:13:47.:13:53.

a straight line. We have whoever in 7th place, eight seconds from the

:13:53.:13:59.

lead and the other Red Bull in second place. Hamilton begins to

:13:59.:14:07.

build his lead. Jensen Button next up, having a go. This will give you

:14:07.:14:13.

an idea of how little grip they have, 28 seconds slower than they

:14:13.:14:21.

were in qualifying. Sebastian, he got his way onto that white line,

:14:21.:14:31.
:14:31.:14:36.

exactly the replay of Fernando the car running? That is in the

:14:36.:14:43.

exit of turn two. That is unusual. That is where we saw Alonso and

:14:43.:14:52.

Vettel running wide. Exactly the same. There is a lesson for Massa.

:14:52.:14:57.

Alonso and Vettel allowed the car to run wide. He tried to fight it

:14:57.:15:03.

and that is what happens. He dipped the right we ate -- rear tyre on to

:15:03.:15:09.

the shiny paint and went straight to the wall. I am sure his real

:15:09.:15:15.

wing will cope with that. It looks like he has met a shark -- his rear

:15:15.:15:25.
:15:25.:15:26.

wing. Mark Webber into the pit lane, the first man on to slicks. That

:15:26.:15:35.

will be an experience. If he can keep enough temperature in those,

:15:35.:15:43.

and Ferrari bring in Massa, we see a Toro Rosso in the background. We

:15:43.:15:49.

have Petrov, Barrichello in the pits. When you feed out of the pit

:15:49.:15:56.

lane, you are straight into the damp part of the racetrack. Webber,

:15:56.:16:06.
:16:06.:16:06.

really struggling. If you can't get out of there and get on it straight

:16:06.:16:13.

away, you lose so much pressure. The dry circuit is so narrow that

:16:13.:16:18.

you have no margin for error. That would be a tightening moment of the

:16:18.:16:22.

body, when you are on a slick tyre and a damp track. This looks like

:16:22.:16:27.

it might be one lap too early, given how wet it is in the first

:16:27.:16:33.

sector, but other parts of the track will be quicker on the slicks.

:16:33.:16:38.

They come out at 100, let's call them 90 when they get on the car,

:16:38.:16:43.

probably 60 or 78 degrees when they get on track, and that is not

:16:44.:16:53.
:16:54.:16:58.

enough. Hamilton has done 139.7 -- 1:39.7. Jenson Button loves these

:16:58.:17:05.

conditions. They know they need to compensate between slicks and

:17:05.:17:14.

intermediates. Normally you would take a bit of front will offer. --

:17:14.:17:19.

front wheel off. It depends how the cars are affected by the different

:17:19.:17:24.

profile. Button gets a bit sideways on the braking zone, very difficult

:17:24.:17:29.

to get the tyres up to temperature. Now he gets on to the dry surface,

:17:29.:17:34.

he will be able to build the temperature, get high on the brakes,

:17:34.:17:39.

he should be able to maintain permission -- position. That was

:17:39.:17:44.

reminiscent of when Jenson won for McLaren in Australia. It looked

:17:44.:17:49.

like he had gone too early on those tyres but he kept it together.

:17:49.:17:59.
:17:59.:18:00.

Felipe Massa, let's have a look at the sector times. This is Webber,

:18:00.:18:05.

very wide in the last corner. Look how much more traction he has got,

:18:05.:18:10.

coming off the last corner. The trouble is, he has to go out of the

:18:10.:18:15.

dry patch. He doesn't, because the Toro Rosso gets out of the way and

:18:15.:18:20.

gives him the dry track. Lewis Hamilton pits from the lead. At the

:18:20.:18:29.

end of lap 11. Vettel follows him in. Another pit stop raise, brand

:18:29.:18:37.

new tyres. -- pit stop race. Only Hamilton had a brand new set

:18:37.:18:41.

available. That could be handy, because they heat up faster. As

:18:41.:18:47.

long as you can get the release in agent of the surface. Michael

:18:47.:18:54.

Schumacher, coming through the picture. He is yet to stop. Button

:18:54.:19:03.

will still be in a net the third place. Kobayashi has had a trip

:19:03.:19:08.

through the pits as well. Webber does the new fastest lap of the

:19:08.:19:12.

race. Three seconds faster than they were doing. Maybe he got it

:19:12.:19:21.

absolutely right. Michael stays on the intermediates. It is surprising.

:19:21.:19:25.

He leads the race. It is surprising that he would have stayed out for

:19:25.:19:31.

the extra lap. The evidence is there that in the second and third

:19:31.:19:35.

sector, it is slick territory. doesn't have do yield because he is

:19:35.:19:39.

ahead of Hamilton on the road and in the race -- doesn't have to

:19:39.:19:44.

yield. Hamilton will have so much more grip. Desmond calls have been

:19:44.:19:53.

good. RADIO: This is our new option tyre.

:19:53.:19:58.

-- judgment calls have been good. A brand new set of super soft tyres.

:19:58.:20:02.

Hamilton fancies a look up the inside. He doesn't want to get

:20:03.:20:06.

kicked by the donkey. Surely Schumacher is coming in the pits on

:20:07.:20:11.

his lap. Michael must be coming into the pits and getting a set of

:20:11.:20:17.

slicks. Unfortunately, Michael won't bleed the lap. He led the

:20:17.:20:23.

race. -- won't lead the lap. Zat Knight, with Button ever closer.

:20:23.:20:30.

That has worked out very well for Jenson Button -- Vettel, with

:20:30.:20:38.

Button ever closer. The almost gets a little nudge. Get on with it says

:20:38.:20:44.

Jenson -- he almost gets. Will Vettel get him any space? He did

:20:44.:20:51.

not have any choice. Button takes over second place in the Grand Prix.

:20:51.:20:57.

Webber coming past Alonso, pitting a lap early was absolutely right.

:20:57.:21:01.

We questioned it, but it was right. He has got those tyres working now,

:21:01.:21:07.

he is coming back through. He is ahead of Alonso, next up the road

:21:07.:21:17.
:21:17.:21:31.

on the power so early. -- mere Nige. This is the other over take that we

:21:31.:21:37.

saw. Webber, coming out of turn one with better grip, and traction. It

:21:38.:21:43.

is all about the drivers who pitted a lap early. They know what to

:21:43.:21:46.

expect, they have more experience on the changing racetrack. I think

:21:46.:21:51.

that is correct. We are seeing underlying pace difference between

:21:51.:21:56.

the Red Bull and the Ferrari. Trulli drops out of the Grand Prix,

:21:56.:22:01.

their one and only -- the one and only retirement so far. He likes

:22:01.:22:07.

the speed and feel of his new power steering.

:22:07.:22:14.

RADIO: Overheating. Understood. Try using the white patches to call

:22:14.:22:24.
:22:24.:22:32.

down. we are getting into the area where

:22:32.:22:38.

we will start to see high degradation. In lap 24 we can be

:22:38.:22:48.

expecting a second black of -- a second round of pit stops. He is

:22:48.:22:52.

starting to lose time. Maybe he bolted a bit too hard on the way

:22:52.:22:56.

out of the pits. How long he was off the throttle. He was just

:22:56.:23:02.

waiting and waiting. They are still eight seconds of qualifying time. I

:23:02.:23:06.

love to see those vortices boiling off the rear wing as the car gets

:23:06.:23:10.

to top speed, when you realise just how hard the aerodynamics are

:23:10.:23:16.

working. Button has close the gap to 6.3 seconds. 1.5 seconds faster

:23:16.:23:21.

on the previous lap. Incredible. The fastest lap of the race for

:23:21.:23:26.

Button. He find some grip. He was in one lap earlier than Lewis

:23:26.:23:31.

Hamilton. We have seen this before with the Renault, was it in

:23:31.:23:36.

Barcelona? Some of the bodywork. We questioned whether it could only be

:23:36.:23:41.

body work. Unless they have got a oil line. Possible safety car

:23:41.:23:47.

situation. The exhaust goes all the way to the front side pods on the

:23:47.:23:54.

Renault. We have seen this before. Clearly, a fire... Was that a sort

:23:54.:24:01.

of an explosion on the side of the car that hit the marshal? It has

:24:01.:24:06.

just blown the side out of the car, all over the racetrack. It is in

:24:06.:24:09.

the pit lane zone, you're not allowed to cross the white line

:24:09.:24:14.

when you come out of the pit lane. We are going down to put the safety

:24:14.:24:19.

car out. Already ticking, it has caught fire straight out of the

:24:19.:24:25.

pits. -- already kicking. He came in for a pit stop and they had a

:24:25.:24:30.

problem on the rear tyre. The engine was overheating itself. Oil

:24:30.:24:36.

and blue smoke was coming out, we will replay the team radio. As he

:24:36.:24:39.

went down the pit lane, it looked like the engine was about to blow,

:24:39.:24:45.

which it did. We didn't get the team radio, but little pieces of

:24:45.:24:48.

engine coming about. We have drivers pitting, they have to go

:24:48.:24:52.

through the debris, they are not allowed to cross the line, or they

:24:52.:24:58.

get a penalty. There is Mark Webber. Alonso has been in, Kovalainen and

:24:58.:25:06.

Perez as well. They have decided to use that, so easy, to pick up a

:25:06.:25:10.

punter 40 -- a punctured through all of that. They are getting into

:25:10.:25:15.

the area where they would have stopped any way. If the safety car

:25:15.:25:18.

came out when they did they stop, they would have been the big

:25:18.:25:22.

winners. There is no safety car at the moment, so they haven't really

:25:22.:25:27.

lost anything. To play devil's advocate, if the safety car doesn't

:25:27.:25:32.

come out, surely it hasn't worked, has it? It is not a question of

:25:32.:25:37.

that, they haven't really lost out too much. They have done about 14

:25:37.:25:41.

laps on the super soft tyres. You put them on at a point when you

:25:41.:25:46.

have a hundred and 40 kilos of fuel on board. Now that you get your

:25:46.:25:50.

second set of super softs on, you'll be able to hit the tyres

:25:50.:25:56.

harder, and take them further. Hamilton response. No sign of a

:25:56.:26:01.

safety car. They have gone into the window -- Hamilton response. It is

:26:01.:26:08.

more about weather forecasting. It looks a bit touch and go. Smartly

:26:08.:26:18.

away. Hamilton had a decent lead, but Button and Vettel have not

:26:18.:26:21.

pitted, trying to straddle the debris, as they cross the white

:26:21.:26:26.

line. They will get a drive through. That is an uncomfortable sight to

:26:26.:26:31.

see. A car on the side of the exit of the pit lane, marshals around,

:26:31.:26:36.

and cars doing 190 mph. That is a brave decision by the clerk of the

:26:37.:26:41.

course, the race director, more accurately, not to put a safety car.

:26:41.:26:46.

You have people exposed, and Formula 1 cars at high speed, it is

:26:46.:26:52.

vulnerable. We saw a wing, of the HRT earlier in this race. -- come

:26:52.:26:58.

off. I think it was spitting bits of engine out. Ted told as it was

:26:58.:27:03.

sitting in the pit lane a long time. It has decided to part company with

:27:03.:27:12.

its internals. I think that is the appropriate word. Heidfeld,

:27:12.:27:16.

understandably, doesn't fancy any more of that. It is going to go

:27:16.:27:20.

bang, when the marshals tried to put it out. I have never seen a

:27:20.:27:25.

Formula 1 car explode. Sutil in the pits, along with Jenson Button.

:27:25.:27:32.

Michael Schumacher has just been out of the pits. Where is Button?

:27:32.:27:37.

He was coming up to lap Sutil. Sutil is the last I lapped runner

:27:37.:27:47.
:27:47.:27:55.

of the moment. -- unslapped a. -- pulls out, to pass Kovalainen.

:27:55.:28:00.

he do that before they waved the green flag? The green flag must be

:28:00.:28:08.

on the exit? It was just before the entry, did he get his nose ahead?

:28:08.:28:14.

Are we down-to- video evidence? good spot. The yellow flag is out.

:28:14.:28:24.
:28:24.:28:24.

We are on to lap 28. Alonso has done a 25.9, he is flying. Vettel,

:28:24.:28:29.

swimming against the tide. He has decided not to come in. The only

:28:29.:28:33.

thing is, he is nearly three seconds slow on the previous lap,

:28:33.:28:38.

than Fernando Alonso. The Mercedes of Michael Schumacher, he has

:28:38.:28:44.

parked the car. The third retirement of the day. The prime

:28:44.:28:48.

tyre that he had on board, that was a yellow tyre, why would he put the

:28:49.:28:58.
:28:59.:29:05.

prime tyre on instead of the super compounds falls away. Why go out on

:29:05.:29:13.

that in these conditions? The only sensible tired to put on his super

:29:13.:29:21.

soft, it is so much quicker. He is miles behind Hamilton. Whereas his

:29:21.:29:26.

team-mate? At the top of the hill, that has worked badly. You are

:29:26.:29:31.

absolutely right, it was a smart move coming in. It has not rained

:29:31.:29:40.

and it was not the safety car, it is just turning into a pit stop

:29:40.:29:46.

phase. Webber is ever closer. Nothing goes wrong for Sebastien

:29:46.:29:53.

Vettel. Now, nothing goes right but he is still in a strong position.

:29:53.:29:58.

Felipe Massa, pulling the move on Kobayashi. Down and touch her

:29:58.:30:07.

number one. Making it stick. Up to 6th place. The only man who stopped

:30:07.:30:15.

once. Everybody else has stopped at least twice. And that is, Hamilton

:30:15.:30:21.

going slowly. It is pouring with rain out there. This will be a race

:30:21.:30:27.

to the pits. One of the tightest pit lanes of the year, stacking the

:30:27.:30:34.

cars up, if you have got to cars coming in, Jensen Button in front

:30:34.:30:39.

of Hamilton. But in in the lead, Sebastian Vettel right behind. That

:30:39.:30:48.

must have been Hamilton recovering. -- Button. Red Bull mechanics on

:30:48.:30:52.

the pit lane. Both McLaren cars stay on the track. But in leads the

:30:52.:30:55.

Grand Prix but maybe you would have thought these super soft tyres

:30:55.:30:59.

would be at a premium, some more mechanical grip from the rubber.

:30:59.:31:04.

This is fascinating with the different tyres, those McLaren cars,

:31:04.:31:10.

it has worked perfectly for Button. Fernando Alonso has pitted. The

:31:10.:31:19.

hard tyres going on. Strange time for that. He has decided to go to

:31:19.:31:29.
:31:29.:31:32.

the end. Just that local shower. Turn Number 10. Fernando Alonso,

:31:32.:31:39.

leading, leaving the pits. Turn six and seven, the chicane, around she

:31:39.:31:45.

goes. That is exactly what we saw going on. So lucky he did not get

:31:45.:31:53.

wiped out by the Force India. Paul di Resta. There was hammered and

:31:53.:31:57.

just dropped his clutch and spins it around. Paul di Resta has to

:31:57.:32:01.

drive off the race track to avoid hitting him. Jensen Button leading

:32:01.:32:08.

from Hamilton. From Sebastian Vettel, Alonso, Webber, 40.5

:32:08.:32:15.

seconds covering the top five. sort of issue, finding his pit box.

:32:15.:32:20.

You can see the cars getting off wide. That was the Red Bull, Webber

:32:20.:32:28.

going wide. And Renault off the track behind him. Surely, there

:32:28.:32:32.

must be very difficult conditions for the drivers what these slick

:32:32.:32:37.

tyres. Hamilton leads the Grand Prix again. He still can't find

:32:37.:32:43.

grip. Right back into his hands... Jenson Button slips down into

:32:43.:32:49.

second place. As he slowed down, you lose water pitcher. It is a

:32:49.:32:53.

snowball effect and we can see why Hamilton leads. Jensen Button,

:32:53.:33:01.

going off the track. As do Petrova and Kovaleinen. Here is the view

:33:01.:33:06.

from Sebastian Vettel, trying not to run into the Renault. Sebastian

:33:06.:33:12.

Vettel, the Red Bull, Will Self. Rosberg is putting intermediates on

:33:13.:33:20.

in the pit lane. In the hope that he can any surprise some people. As

:33:20.:33:24.

we watch Sebastian Vettel off the track in turn 13. The further they

:33:24.:33:31.

go, the harder it will get. Hamilton must have had a problem,

:33:31.:33:35.

that the arrest is open and Jensen Button takes the lead again!

:33:35.:33:42.

Hamilton down the outside. Surely, Lewis made some mistake? But in

:33:42.:33:46.

leads. This is crucial for these two guys in the same team because

:33:46.:33:51.

whoever has track position, if they do come in, they will get the first

:33:51.:33:55.

pit stop. If you stack them up, you will lose and massive amount.

:33:55.:34:00.

Hamilton back in the lead. Punch and counter-punch. Webber has

:34:00.:34:07.

pitted. Mark Webber has pitted, Petrov, Barrichello. Webber has

:34:07.:34:11.

gone to intermediate. It has got and heavier in the last 30 seconds,

:34:11.:34:14.

the rain and the teams would like the cars to stay out but they will

:34:14.:34:19.

lose more time with the spin. The tyres are ready for the McLaren

:34:19.:34:24.

cars. Difficult to make that judgement call, watching the replay

:34:25.:34:29.

of Jensen Button taking the lead. We don't know how he suddenly ended

:34:29.:34:32.

up right back on the gearbox but it does not matter. He has got that

:34:32.:34:39.

position. And we will see, I think, somebody doing the handbrake turn

:34:39.:34:43.

followed by a three-point turn. I have seen that in sportscar racing,

:34:43.:34:53.
:34:53.:34:55.

not in Formula One! Jensen Button. Hamilton is back ahead of him,

:34:55.:35:01.

Hamilton is in the pit lane. Here comes the was Hamilton. Retaking

:35:01.:35:09.

the lead around there. He just cannot find enough grit. What are

:35:09.:35:19.
:35:19.:35:20.

they putting on? Intermediate. We have Rosberg on intermediate and

:35:20.:35:24.

Hamilton. I have not seen anybody else putting them on. Ferrari in

:35:24.:35:31.

the background, Mark Webber has intermediate. He is on his out flat.

:35:31.:35:38.

If you are six seconds faster, over four laps you might as well be out.

:35:38.:35:42.

You will when the pit stop. The golden rule, Ayrton Senna showed us

:35:42.:35:48.

that in 1993 at Donington. The right tyres at the right time. It

:35:49.:35:55.

seems like everything is drying up. He was not going fast enough. That

:35:55.:35:59.

will have cost Lewis Hamilton the race, if it does not rain again.

:35:59.:36:08.

Mark Webber pitting from 50s, another set a dry tyres. Sebastian

:36:08.:36:12.

Vettel has stayed out in all of this, we can see Fernando Alonso

:36:12.:36:15.

overtaking McLaren, which is on intermediate, which is now the

:36:15.:36:21.

wrong tyre. Confirming, Fernando Alonso has just breezed past

:36:21.:36:28.

Hamilton. Whose idea was this?! The drive-through penalty for car

:36:28.:36:32.

number three, forcing another driver off the track. That is Lewis

:36:32.:36:35.

Hamilton, you cannot change the tyres or work on the car while

:36:35.:36:41.

working on that. Hamilton is about to have doubly bad news. He has to

:36:41.:36:47.

put for the tyres and he has to do the drive-through within three laps.

:36:47.:36:53.

This will be confirmation of this extra grip. Fernando Alonso almost

:36:53.:37:01.

runs in to him. Turn 6, 7, Lewis Hamilton looking like he had it all

:37:01.:37:05.

under control and they were changes tyres first and then do the drive

:37:05.:37:10.

through. It would not want to be the one telling him about the drive

:37:10.:37:15.

through. Very tardy in pulling away. Ted mentioned that he looked like

:37:15.:37:19.

he had difficulty at the first stop getting away, maybe you know

:37:19.:37:24.

something? It is a clutch, his touch is dragging rather than in

:37:24.:37:32.

having problems selecting any gear. Thank you. He was Hamilton out and

:37:32.:37:36.

presumably they have told him he has the drive through. -- Lewis

:37:36.:37:40.

Hamilton. A that is an uncomfortable message to have to

:37:40.:37:44.

deliver, especially to a driver who is so highly strung behind the

:37:44.:37:50.

wheel. Maybe that's not the right word. But so motivated behind the

:37:50.:37:57.

wheel! Let's refocus on the Grand Prix. But in a leading. Dry tyres.

:37:57.:38:07.
:38:07.:38:08.

From Sebastien Vettel, only by 4.4 seconds. This is a leader, second

:38:08.:38:11.

place, it has worked out well for Sebastian Vettel, although batten

:38:11.:38:17.

was much quicker. Maybe the traffic is coming into play. Fernando

:38:17.:38:24.

Alonso in third place. Presumably Felipe Massa, once Hamilton has

:38:24.:38:29.

done his drive through, will be into 4th place. Back on the dry

:38:29.:38:35.

tyres again. The intermediate move turned out to be wrong. It will be

:38:36.:38:39.

interesting to see if that was the call of Lewis Hamilton or the team

:38:39.:38:43.

and in hindsight, it's a wonderful thing. They were struggling in the

:38:43.:38:49.

rain, but normally Lewis Hamilton would be hanging out longest.

:38:49.:38:52.

man we are watching, Jensen Button, he has been Supreme in these

:38:52.:38:57.

changing conditions. Each of his victories have come with changeable

:38:57.:39:04.

conditions. 15 laps to go, including this one. And can

:39:04.:39:12.

Sebastian Vettel find enough to overcome Button? Three-tenths

:39:12.:39:22.
:39:22.:39:22.

faster. Sebastian Vettel. We still have risen our hands. Hamilton has

:39:22.:39:29.

a drive through. He welcome out next year. He must serve at within

:39:29.:39:37.

the next lap or two. -- welcome out next to you. They have responded by

:39:37.:39:45.

going purple in the first sector. And he delivers. 30 seconds to live.

:39:45.:39:53.

The teams are learning more to keep swirling and knowing it will not

:39:53.:39:57.

get transmitted. Red Bull will be doing that. We're getting a clear

:39:57.:40:03.

message. It would be nice to think we could get every single message

:40:03.:40:10.

that goes out. You don't always have access. The pit lane. Hamilton

:40:10.:40:15.

doing his drive through. It is on a speed limiter. Nick Hamilton, his

:40:15.:40:24.

brother, not impressed with that. At all. So, looking pretty handy

:40:24.:40:30.

for Button to win this. He is down behind Felipe Massa and Mark Webber.

:40:30.:40:34.

That makes him in 6th place. Whoever has just done the fastest

:40:34.:40:40.

lap of the race. That looks like a tidy little scrap. For the end of

:40:40.:40:45.

the Grand Prix, those three? Mark Webber is closing in on Felipe

:40:45.:40:50.

Massa. He glances in his mirrors to make sure that Lewis Hamilton is

:40:50.:40:56.

behind him. He will focus his attack on Felipe Massa. Just to

:40:56.:41:00.

paint the picture, being on the wrong tyres momentarily and that

:41:00.:41:05.

drive-thru, from leading the race, Lewis Hamilton is now 55 seconds

:41:05.:41:13.

behind Jenson Button. In 6th place. Jensen Button's lead is five

:41:13.:41:21.

seconds. It really is moving around. Fernando Alonso is 20 seconds

:41:21.:41:31.
:41:31.:41:31.

behind Jenson Button in third place. This is what the main fighters.

:41:31.:41:34.

Barton has just on the fastest first sector of the entire Grand

:41:34.:41:43.

Prix. He won this race five years ago. His first grand prix victory

:41:43.:41:48.

in very similar conditions. And he leads this one. Mark Webber comes

:41:48.:41:52.

alongside Felipe Massa. The DRS wide open. He has the position. As

:41:52.:41:57.

long as he isn't too greedy on the brakes, he will keep that confident.

:41:57.:42:02.

He was Hamilton is right on the scene, too. He has got good

:42:02.:42:06.

traction but he is on the outside four-term number two. -- Lewis

:42:06.:42:13.

Hamilton. He fancies a look up the inside. Felipe Massa parks his car

:42:13.:42:18.

in the middle of the track, I don't blame him. Button, then the fastest

:42:18.:42:25.

lap. That is mighty. Pointing the wrong direction of turn number 12.

:42:25.:42:31.

There is a big gap behind him. Look, Hamilton has done it into six. 6

:42:31.:42:40.

and 7. Traffic in the way. Now, Hamilton will set about. He has the

:42:40.:42:50.
:42:50.:42:50.

right tyres, finally. Jensen Button, leading. He has just smashed Vettel.

:42:50.:42:55.

And just laying down that Parker to the World Championship leader. To

:42:55.:42:59.

settle for second place, if I were you, and you're 18 points. This one

:42:59.:43:08.

as mine. That is the message that Jensen Button sends out. Fernando

:43:08.:43:12.

Alonso Jaya rating on the brake pedal. It is a classic case of the

:43:12.:43:15.

Kers system harvesting and the brake balance because a man of his

:43:15.:43:24.

Canada does not spend cars. 57 seconds covering the top five.

:43:24.:43:33.

After those very his adventures. -- man of his calibre. Sebastien Buemi,

:43:33.:43:43.
:43:43.:43:44.

Alguersuari. And there is Kobayashi. I think Paul arrester has taken

:43:44.:43:49.

second place away from Kobayashi. In fact, he has. Kobayashi under

:43:49.:43:58.

extreme pressure. Paul di Resta goes over the line. Down the road,

:43:58.:44:08.
:44:08.:44:17.

tyre change, and he is struggling to find any grip -- only stop once.

:44:17.:44:26.

Di Resta is well into the points. - - only stopped once. It is great

:44:27.:44:36.
:44:37.:44:40.

this very conservative two-stop strategy, can keep these cars

:44:40.:44:44.

behind until the end of the Grand Prix. He could find himself going

:44:44.:44:50.

from eighth to 11th very quickly. Yes, Rosberg is catching at a fast

:44:50.:44:56.

rate of knots. They are all squabbling over the same piece of

:44:56.:45:02.

tarmac. Rosberg is cruising, he is behind them now already. I think if

:45:02.:45:07.

I was the Toro Rosso team manager, I would say, you have a couple of

:45:07.:45:11.

laps at it, if you can't make it stick, move over and give

:45:11.:45:19.

Alguersauri a go. He should be easy meat, shouldn't he? Yes, but not

:45:19.:45:23.

getting himself and positioned correctly as he closes into the DRS

:45:23.:45:30.

zone. Surely he has got to try to send it up the inside to turn one.

:45:30.:45:36.

He has got to go for it. They are going to contact, guaranteed.

:45:36.:45:46.
:45:46.:45:54.

Driving into a wage. Guaranteed to inside and trying to surprise him.

:45:54.:45:58.

Because he will turn in on you and he won't see you coming. I am

:45:58.:46:08.
:46:08.:46:12.

beginning to wonder... Force India going slowly. Pound into turn one.

:46:12.:46:19.

Buemi gets the job done -- down into Tyne one. Kobayashi is trying

:46:19.:46:29.
:46:29.:46:33.

dancing between the confetti of carbon fibre. Look at these two

:46:33.:46:39.

catching them. Webber and Hamilton, less than a second apart. Button

:46:39.:46:45.

has the lead to 8.1 seconds now. Alonso, 16 seconds behind. He

:46:45.:46:52.

pretty much put himself in free air, half a second of -- ahead of Webber.

:46:52.:46:56.

This is so difficult for the leaders. When you come across a

:46:56.:47:02.

pack fighting each other that hard. Does Perez know they are there. Yes.

:47:03.:47:07.

That might be a chance for Hamilton to pounce. Usually the first man on

:47:07.:47:12.

the scene when they are fighting like that loses out. He has to be

:47:12.:47:18.

careful, not to try and follow them through. Hamilton is going to take

:47:18.:47:23.

the place from Webber, seize the opportunity. Webber, wrong-footed

:47:23.:47:29.

in the traffic. Webber, trying to do something about it, but he will

:47:29.:47:35.

be in the DRS zone. It is a role reversal. Webber can get his real

:47:35.:47:41.

wing open. A tight line for Hamilton. Webber has nearly lost it.

:47:41.:47:47.

Hamilton disappeared. He found super grip. Very late that Mark

:47:47.:47:54.

Webber opened his DRS. He was almost at the start-finish straight

:47:54.:47:59.

before he opened it. Kobayashi, a lap down, surely has to be under

:47:59.:48:03.

investigation for getting in the wake of the lead lap cars. He is

:48:03.:48:08.

going through turn 12 minding his own business. He is a lap down,

:48:08.:48:14.

getting blue flags. He had to go down the corner, he can't evaporate,

:48:14.:48:21.

he has got to drive through the corner. Jenson Button is going to

:48:21.:48:30.

win Grand Prix number 200. Rosberg gets out of the way. Button is the

:48:30.:48:34.

man when the track is greasy. When you need somebody with a clear and

:48:35.:48:41.

calm head. Jenson Button is the man who can find the grip. The 6th

:48:41.:48:45.

sense about how to survive on a track that has proved treacherous

:48:45.:48:51.

from the very beginning of the race. He majestically makes his way

:48:51.:48:57.

through the back of the racetrack. Guiding the McLaren. He has won

:48:57.:49:03.

already, as far as he is concerned. Through the tyre debris, two

:49:03.:49:11.

corners to go for the popular Brit. The manner you need, when the track

:49:11.:49:16.

doesn't want to let you know what is going to happen -- the man you

:49:16.:49:21.

need. He is acknowledging the crowd, he has a few hundred metres to go.

:49:21.:49:25.

Button brilliantly wins the Hungarian Grand Prix. The

:49:25.:49:31.

championship leader Vettel follows him home by 3.5 seconds. Supreme

:49:31.:49:36.

skill, we have seen this afternoon, as drivers had to fight very

:49:36.:49:41.

difficult conditions. As ever, Alonso somehow keeps it pointing in

:49:41.:49:46.

the right direction for a podium. They are half a minute ahead of

:49:46.:49:50.

Hamilton and Webber. Hamilton clearly has that covered. Di Resta

:49:50.:49:55.

needs to be careful he doesn't lose a place on the final lap. Paul di

:49:55.:50:03.

Resta will be 7th. Hamilton, fourth, Webber, fifth, Massa, sixth. I

:50:03.:50:08.

don't believe Lewis Hamilton will be too pleased when he steps out of

:50:08.:50:12.

the McLaren. He doesn't go over to the wall with his normal fist in

:50:12.:50:22.
:50:22.:50:32.

RADIO: Absolutely brilliant, fantastic job, happy to hundredth

:50:32.:50:36.

race, that was awesome. Perfect going into the summer break, let's

:50:36.:50:44.

come back and win them all. It is now time for some champagne. Jenson

:50:44.:50:54.
:50:54.:50:54.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 54 seconds

:50:54.:51:48.

Initially I was told to come in and queue up behind him. To put into us

the pace was in the car. Especially after last week. We made a good

:52:35.:52:41.

step forward and I felt much more comfortable. I start the race to

could have been anything. Congratulations to Jenson, he is

very quick in these conditions. The last two races, maybe he was a bit

:52:55.:53:01.

sure we get back to where we were at the beginning of the season.

was quite interesting. I think with different conditions, different

:53:17.:53:23.

tyre choice for different people, also in the dry conditions, people

:53:23.:53:28.

put soft and other guys put super soft. I think at the end, being on

the podium is a great achievement again for the team, in this

team is improving and giving Ford. It was an intense race. -- and

:53:48.:53:52.

moving forward. We did great for the first half of the race. I was

:53:52.:54:01.

struggling with the graining on my tyres. I had a big mistake. My left

:54:01.:54:06.

front tyre was pretty warm, I went a bit wide, came out of the chicane

:54:06.:54:11.

and spun, which is very rare, one of the first times I have done that.

:54:11.:54:16.

After that, I have to apologise to Paul di Resta. I didn't see him. I

:54:16.:54:22.

had no clue. I don't know what happened. I got a penalty for

:54:22.:54:28.

something. Which is to be expected, I guess. I apologise to him. I can

:54:28.:54:32.

understand what he has tried to do, but if I hadn't taken action, I was

:54:32.:54:41.

going to hit him. I will speak to Lewis. No hard feelings about it. I

:54:41.:54:45.

will just continue enjoying these points. Let's get the thoughts of

:54:45.:54:51.

Eddie Jordan. It goes down as the 200th Grand Prix and a win for

:54:51.:54:54.

Jenson Button. Yes, a remarkable win. I thought he drove

:54:54.:55:01.

magnificently. Even though we have heard that his team wanted to come

:55:01.:55:05.

in, he did not do it and he won the race. The rest of the podium was

:55:05.:55:10.

made up with Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel. He did not win

:55:10.:55:14.

but extended his lead. That is the hallmark of somebody special. Knows

:55:14.:55:19.

when to maximise the ability of what is there. He was not going to

:55:19.:55:22.

be Jenson in these conditions, in my view, but he finishes second,

:55:22.:55:27.

gets a huge 18 points and extends his lead. This looks ominous for

:55:27.:55:32.

the rest of the season. People will say, how can one to get it so right

:55:32.:55:35.

with Jenson and so wrong with Lewis Hamilton Question Mark we have

:55:35.:55:41.

heard the talk of the team, there were two errors. There were lots of

:55:41.:55:45.

errors and lots of very good course. It is a difficult time for those

:55:45.:55:50.

guys on the country to be able to make the right call. Jenson Button,

:55:50.:55:56.

it worked, he won the race, did not work for Lewis Hamilton. Janssens -

:55:56.:56:03.

- Paul di Resta, the best brickie in 2011? It is looking like that.

:56:03.:56:10.

- best rookie. On recent evidence, this car is moving up the grid, and

:56:10.:56:13.

for sure, Paul di Resta has the ability to be rookie of the year.
