Buckmore Boy Lewis Back On Top After Spa

Jenson taken out on lap 15

There was mixed news for our two ex 'Buckmore Boys' at the Belgian GP in Spa. On the plus side Lewis Hamilton's win takes him to the top of the Drivers Championship standings where he now leads Mark Webber by three points.

Things went far less well for Jenson Button who got 'speared' by a 'confused*' Vettel (*Jenson's words) and was forced into retirement as early as lap 15. Jenson now sits fourth in the standings but it is not all over for the Brit just yet as there are still six rounds to go.

It seems such a short time ago that both of these guys were spending their weekends pounding the hallowed Buckmore asphalt as they honed their craft.
