Button went on to win the race, with Hamilton finishing third despite team principal Martin Whitmarsh's admission that the team had made a mistake in calculating Button's fuel load, forcing the 2009 World Champion to enter a "severe fuel-saving mode" on the eighth lap of the race.
Button gañou a carreira, e Hamilton terminou terceiro a pesar de que o director do equipo Martin Whitmarsh admitiu que o equipo cometera un erro no cálculo na carga de combustible de Button, o que obrigou ao Campión do Mundo de 2009 a entrar nun "severo modo de aforro de combustible" na oitava volta da carreira.
