I don't purposely speed, but I might go over by five or six miles an hour from time to time. It doesn't give me a buzz driving on normal roads, because I can't go fast enough. It's never going to be anything like an F1 car. Jenson Button buzzcardrive share on social
If I run I lose so much weight, which I need because you're limited on weight when you are a tall driver. And have you seen marathon runners? They're quite skinny. Jenson Button driverlimitlose Change image and share on social
I love the role of being the experienced driver and that is definitely the case next year - I think I am the most experienced guy in F1 next year. Jenson Button casedriverexperience Change image and share on social
If someone was making a movie about F1 in the last six months, they wouldn't need to add a Hollywood ending. If they do make that movie, it's got to be 'The Curious Case Of Jenson Button,' where I've lived my life backwards. I'd like Johnny Depp to play me but he wouldn't be quite right.

For me, triathlons were something that was down to me and my fitness. Now, I really enjoy the pain in the triathlon of chasing someone down. It's a bit like chasing down Nico Rosberg in the last few laps at Silverstone - it makes you feel alive. Jenson Button alivebitechase share on social
When I'm on my own, I can be negative. I need my friends and family around to help pick me up if I've had a bad qualifying session. I think insecurity plagues a lot of sportspeople. Jenson Button badfamilyfriend Change image and share on social
My school reports always used to point out that my concentration levels were appalling. I never listened in class because I was always daydreaming about racing. I never thought for a moment about doing anything else. There was no guarantee that I'd make a career in it but I never had any plan B. Jenson Button appallcareerclass share on social
The only time I think about life beyond F1 is when I contemplate becoming a dad. But there's no way that's going to happen while I'm still racing. To be successful in F1 you need to be very selfish in lots of ways and you're away from home for long periods. That's not the kind of father I want to be.

It doesn't matter who wins if I don't. I only care if I win. I'm jealous of anyone else who wins. Jenson Button carejealousmatter Change image and share on social
I think fans of the sport have a good understanding now of how fit Formula One drivers need to be. Jenson Button driverfanfit Change image and share on social
