Following a long nine months, Hamilton and McLaren yesterday savoured the sweet taste of victory champagne after taking the chequered flag in the Hungarian Grand Prix.
You have to go back to China last October for Hamilton's last win, following which he became world champion at the next and final race in Brazil. However, up until now this season Hamilton has far from honoured that title due to a woefully uncompetitive car. But following a radical revamp, McLaren have finally rediscovered the winning formula again. "It's an incredible feeling to be back here after what feels such a long time away, and after such a struggle for me and my team," said Hamilton.
"I'm just so proud of the guys, especially when I go to the factory and see how hard everyone is pushing.
"Although we have caught up quite a bit of late, we didn't expect to win this weekend. We never felt we had the pace to win.
