Button & Co. please the crowds in Budapest
Button, Rosebrg, and Schumacher, put on a show for Hungarian fans

Greeted by thousands of Hungarian fans, Jenson Button flogged last year’s McLaren MP4-26 through the heart of Budapest yesterday on a specially-constructed 1.6-kilometre street course in the Hungarian capital as part of the ‘Raise Your Game Weekend’ event, which has been arranged by McLaren's title sponsors Vodafone.

Jenson performed ever-so crowd pleasing doughnuts and hit a top speed of 200kph (125mph) on the roads near the Hungarian Parliament building during the event for one of McLaren’s sponsors.

“It was a great pleasure for me to take part in such a huge festival featuring exciting programs in downtown Budapest,” said Button.

Michael Schumacher entertained fans at the first round of the DTM championship at the Hockenheimring on Sunday, performing a demonstration run in last year’s W02 at the track which will hold this year’s German Grand Prix.

Team mate Nico Rosberg drove a Mercedes W196 Streamliner – an example of the last Mercedes to win an F1 race before his victory in the Chinese Grand Prix this year.

The DTM race was won for Mercedes by McLaren test driver Gary Paffett.
