Jenson Button spent 17 full seasons in Formula 1 and won the title in 2009. After leaving the championship, the Briton did not finish his career and tries himself in several racing series but misses Formula 1.
Jenson Button “I don’t miss Formula 1. Yes, this is the pinnacle of motorsport, but I don’t miss flights around the world and a calendar of 23 races. In addition, this is a rather dangerous place. I entered Formula 1 at the age of 20 and finished my races at the age of 36, and at that time I knew almost nothing about life. I’ve had a lot to learn over the years.”
Speaking about the battle for the title in 2022, Jenson noted that he was surprised by the current form of Mercedes: “Their results were a huge surprise to me. Last year Ferrari had nothing to lose, so they did everything they could to prepare for 2022. On the straights, their car looks terrible because of the build-up, but it can also corner well.
They’ve done a great job and I don’t think the balance of power will change anytime soon. Ferrari still has more wind tunnel time available than Mercedes and Red Bull. In such circumstances, Mercedes will be difficult to recoup.
It’s good for Mercedes to have an excellent team player in the person of George Russell. Two good drivers are better than one because they give the team effective feedback and help improve the car. From this point of view, everything is good at Mercedes now, but the atmosphere in the team always changes when you fight for the win. It’s normal when two riders go from best friends to bitter rivals.”
