When Jenson buttoned down for a Monaco clean-sweep

Jenson Button and Brawn GP were in a league of their own on this day in 2009, blitzing the opposition with a lights-to-flag win at the Monaco Grand Prix.

It was Jenson's fourth win at the wheel of the dominant BGP 001, the duo remaining the class of the field over the course of a banner year for both team and driver.

"Monaco baby, YEAH!"
