Button will remember Bahrain Grand Prix for other reasons too Jenson Button may have ended up with a burnt buttock at the end of the Bahrain Grand Prix, but the pain was worth it after a third win in four races to strengthen his early grip on the Formula One world title. The searing heat outside the car which stayed a constant 36 degrees C throughout the race, was matched by a fiery cockpit as all the drivers sat for 90 minutes. For some, like Button, it was a little more uncomfortable than for others, but a cold bath, some ice and a rub from Sebastien Vettel for good measure will see the Briton right. No doubt, as the driver and the team in form, the 29-year-old is the man to beat, and in Barcelona he can expect heat of a different kind from his rivals as they look to reel him in. By then, his sore bum should have healed as he joked: "Wow, that was hot! "It was really hot. All the boxes around my seat were burning. It's tough being a Formula One racing driver! "I burnt the top of my left buttock on an electrical box. It's a little bit burnt. Hopefully we can solve that issue (the box, not his bum)." It was at that point runner-up Sebastien Vettel consolingly rubbed his shoulder, to which sharp-as-a-tack Button quipped: "I'll get you stroking it (the buttock) later Sebastien, don't worry."
