Jenson Button is Champion!

 Through an aggressive drive from 14th to 5th in Brazil, Jenson Button smashed his opposition to take his first F1 World Championship.

Starting from 14th on the grid with his closest competitor Rubens Barrichello starting from pole position, the odds were that the championship was going to go down to the wire at the final race of the season in Abu Dhabi. 

But that wasn't to be the case - Jenson drove what was probably the best race we've seen this year, showing his class with no less than four critical on track passing moves to move him up to an eventual fifth place. With Rubens dropping down to eighth and Vettel only managing forth, they couldn't muster enough points to take the fight to Abu Dhabi.

Go JB!
