I will always remember that lucky pink shirt he always wore on race day. Jenson can feel privileged to have had a father who got him to where he is today. I guess Jenson's first race is going to be difficult.

Testing starts in a little over two weeks with completely new cars/ engines etc, so a normal session would be tough but John was always with Jenson and there is no doubt it's going to be very tough for him, however F1 will close ranks and look after their own and so he won't be short of support!..can only wish him and his family good luck.

I have just seen this too - RIP Mr Button Senior; and my thoughts go out to Jensen and his family:cry:
