Description

The 2009 Turkish Grand Prix was won by Jenson Button driving for Brawn GP, marking his sixth victory in the opening seven races of his championship-winning season. The race took place on 7 June 2009 at the Istanbul Park circuit.
Sebastian Vettel qualified on pole position for Red Bull Racing and initially kept the lead at the start. However, a critical first-lap error at Turn 9 saw him slide wide, allowing Button to sweep past into a lead he would not relinquish. Vettel's three-stop strategy ultimately backfired, causing him to also drop behind his teammate Mark Webber, who secured second place.
