Reigning champion Jenson Button declared the 2010 Chinese Grand Prix to be “my best victory in Formula 1” – at least until his next win, in Canada a year later!
Just like Canada 2011, this was a race defined by mixed weather conditions, which played into Button’s super-sensitive hands. Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber had locked out the front row, but Fernando Alonso’s Ferrari rocketed ahead at the start. Race director Charlie Whiting immediately pointed at Alonso from his starter’s stand, and a penalty soon followed for a jump start.

After the race it was judged to be a “racing incident”.
