Jenson Button hailed yesterday's crazy Canadian Grand Prix victory as the best of his Formula One career. ------------ 
Button's debut triumph, back in Hungary in 2006 when he came from 14th on the grid in wet conditions to take the chequered flag, was special enough after waiting 113 grands prix for the pleasure.
But yesterday's triumph was epic, as in a wet race it involved six visits into the pits - five for tyres and one drive-through penalty - and accidents with McLaren team-mate Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.
The second, which resulted in Alonso's retirement, also punctured a tyre on Button's car that necessitated one of the stops, pitching him to 21st and last at that stage with 43 laps remaining.
But tenacity, determination, some brilliant driving and, without a doubt, a slice of luck brought Button his 10th career win, and his first for 22 races.
That good fortune arrived around three kilometres from home of a race Vettel had led for around 98 per cent of the time up until that point as the reigning champion slid wide at turn six.
