Button celebrates after winning the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The 26-year-old Honda driver ended his long wait, triumphant at last in his 113th start.
He also becomes the first British winner of a Grand Prix since David Coulthard for McLaren in Australia in 2003,
"It's great that I've won after so long and that I don't have to do those interviews any more where they say 'you've done 113 races without a win," said Button.
"It's going to be, 'He's won his first race and looking forwards to the next one,' which takes a lot of weight off my shoulders."
