On the Formula One circuit, Brawn's Jenson Button has clinched his third win in four races this season, taking top honors at the Bahrain Grand Prix in the United Arab Emirates.

On Saturday, Toyota’s drivers Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock secured the front row of the grid.

However, the Japanese manufacturer failed to build on the progress as Jenson Button followed a flawless strategy to dash their hopes of a breakthrough first win.

Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel of Germany came second, with Jarno Trulli of Italy finishing only third. Current champion Lewis Hamilton claimed fourth place.

Button, with four career wins, now has 31 points to Button's teammate Rubens Barrichello and Vettel, with 19 and 18 points respectively.
