Jenson Button is world champion: What do you think?

Jenson Button is Formula One world champion after he finished fifth in the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday.

The win means Button is the second British driver in a row to be F1 champ, after Lewis Hamilton finished top of the pile last year.

And on Sunday he had a brilliant race, starting in 14th but moving up to fifth after lots of clever overtaking, so were you watching? What do you think about Jenson's victory?

If you're a Button fan, did you ever worry he might not do it? Or maybe you prefer other drivers like Lewis Hamilton?

And with this year's Formula One title race completed, who would you like to see challenging Jenson in 2010?

"Jenson Button definitely deserved to win as he scored the most points and has the most wins. Jenson was not always in the best car but made good use of it when he was. The overtaking in Brazil is fantastic and if he is not worthy of becoming world champion then neither is Hamilton."

Fraser, 13, Aberdeen, Scotland

"Well done to all the team for winning the world championship and wishing him and his family good luck in the future."

"I wish Lewis Hamilton won because he grew up in the town next to mine, Stevenage."

Will, 12, Hertfordshire, England

"I think Button was not worthy of winning the title because of his inconsistency. It should have been Rubens because I like him. However, I think that because of his sensational drive in Interlagos he deserves the credit, and also Ross Brawn - nobody is better than him."

Abdul, 13, London, England

"Well done, it makes me proud to be British!!!!!!"

Jordan, 13, Edinburgh, Scotland

"I'm very disappointed that Button won. He had a far superior car at the beginning of the season and as soon as the others caught up, he was nowhere. Lewis's drive yesterday to go from 17th to 3rd in not the fastest car shows what a TRUE champion is made of."

Amy, 15, Plymouth, England

"I would have preferred it if Lewis Hamilton won."

Abbie, 10, England
