Jenson Button started the season in the best way, who climbed to the first step of the podium, at the opening grand prix of the year on the streets of Melbourne's Albert Park. The British pilot emphasized that the good result results from the hard work done by the team's engineers, during the winter.

“Everyone who is here, they know that one win means a lot. We worked a lot during the winter and it showed in qualifying, but also with the victory today. The mechanics at our facility did a really good job for the first race of the season and that helped us push harder during the race.", said the British pilot, who then added.

"Towards the end of the match, when the temperature drops it's hard to keep the tires warm. So we were a bit on the limit, however I managed to manage the tires properly and save fuel as well, something that was very important to us.

The team told me to push as hard as I could, after the exit of the safety car, I did and I'm happy I was in control until the end of the race. It was an impressive day", completed.

This was Button's third win in Australia.
