Hamilton seal the perfect weekend for him with his 19 win!!!
Lewis Hamilton fended off Kimi Raikkonen to claim victory in the Hungarian Grand Prix and revitalise a title campaign that had begun to drift since McLaren's last win in Canada.
Hamilton led the majority of the race, but had a Lotus on his tail nearly all of the way. Hamilton never led by more than three seconds from Grosjean in the first stint, and then in the final stint he had Raikkonen within two seconds for the final 15 laps but was able to hold off the Lotus on the tight circuit to eventually win by just one second. Grosjean came home third, just ahead of Sebastian Vettel who gambled on a late third stop to try and grab a spot on the podium but fell short. Fernando Alonso finished fifth and extended his championship lead to 40 points as he crossed the line ahead of Jenson Button, Bruno Senna, Mark Webber, Felipe Massa and Nico Rosberg.
