Button Wins Belgian Grand Prix

McLaren driver Jenson Button took a demanding victory in an eventful race at Spa-Francorchamps. Button
led from start to finish, ousting Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel and Lotus driver Kimi Raikkonen.

With a heavy crash at the start of the race, the Belgian Grand Prix proved to be one race to remember.
Right after the start, Lotus driver Romain Grosjean moved to his right, leaving no room for McLaren
driver Lewis Hamilton to pass. Followed by a collision, eliminating Spanish Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso
and Mexican Sauber driver Sergio Perez, forcing them to retire.

Button, though, continued to lead the race at Spa, claiming his second victory in the 2012 season. He currently sits in sixth in the Drivers Championship, 63 points behind Spanish Ferrari driver Fernando
Alonso, who still leads the Championship.
