Brawn GP's Jenson Button celebrates winning the qualifying session for Sunday's Malaysian F1 GP in Sepang on Saturday

Brawn GP driver Jenson Button grabbed his second successive pole position in as many weeks at the Malaysian GP qualifying on Saturday clocking 1:35:181 seconds on his final lap. It is the fifth pole of Button's career but the first time that he's achieved it in consecutive races. "This is more special than Melbourne because it is not easy to get one pole position, and to have two on the trot, I've never achieved that in my F1 career. It's a great feeling and shows that the car works on different circuits," said the 29-year-old.
