BUDAPEST : Lewis Hamilton has had more pole positions than any driver in Formula One history, but the Briton's 104th in Hungary on Saturday still felt like a first.
It was also the first time any driver had ever taken nine poles at the same circuit - a record he had previously shared with past greats Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher on eight apiece. "It feels strange to say that when there's 104 but I don't remember the last time I had a pole, it feels so long ago."
It could easily have been a different story, with the Briton in 17th place and a minute to go in the first phase of qualifying, but he hauled himself clear and then the afternoon just got better and better.A gust of wind towards the end cost him some time, he reckoned, but he had just enough in the bag to start the celebrations."What I've been searching for with this car is confidence, confidence to be able to really send it," he explained.
