FINALLY.

With Lewis Hamilton being the defending F1 world champion, losing all those races this 2009 F1 season has really scarred his ego a great deal. He never got a podium finish in the first nine races of the season. Hell, he even went scoreless in the last five races for crying out loud.

It all changed in the 2009 F1 Hungarian Grand Prix in Budapest where the defending champ finally got his maiden win of the year. Yup, he finally won a race, finishing in front of second place finisher Kimi Raikkonen and third placer, Mark Webber.

He could care less for Felipe Massa who was in a hospital due to a freak accident during qualifying.

‘’It is an incredible feeling to be back here after all,’’ Lewis Hamilton said. ‘’It feels such a long time away, such a struggle with me and the team but as I said on the in-lap I am so proud of the guys.’’

‘’I go to the factory and see how hard everyone pushing, they never gave up and it is something very rare to see in a large group of people. We didn’t expect to win this weekend. I didn’t feel we had pace to win but the car felt fantastic. It’s incredibly special to be back up here, not just on the podium but just to get this win.’’

‘’The car was fantastic. The team asked me to look after tires, and through experience I was able to do that, so thanks to the guys and fans, and my family.’’

‘’We have to take as much as we can from this weekend. We need to continue to push, it doesn’t mean we can start slowing down. We will keep pushing, we have improvements to make and work to do to beat these guys on a regular basis. It’s one huge leap for us, let’s keep going.’’
