A great vantage point

A spectacular photo courtesy of McLaren of Jenson Button's pit stop during last week's Australian Grand Prix. One of the biggest surprises of the race was that Button finished at all, such was the magnitude of McLaren-Honda's reliability issues throughout pre-season testing. However, he was still two laps down and the main focus of this stop will have been to get the car out safely to continue to gain mileage.
