Jenson Button Quotes

You’re pulling 4-5G for a lot of the corners around the lap. We build up lactic acid because there are a lot of vibrations in the car, and you have to have strong legs to hit the brake pedal. We need to be fit to do every lap at 100% Picture Quote #1

I need to develop a car and engineer a car in a position that feels comfortable for me, and I don’t think anyone can do a better job than I can in that position. The problem for me is if I can’t get the car there I do struggle more than some Picture Quote #1

To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race there’s a mix of excitement and fear. If it’s a wet track, then it’s worse as you’re not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent as much as 30 grand on a watch but it’s not about flaunting my wealth. I don’t have many extravagances but watches are my biggest one. I must have 30 of them now. I’ve been collecting since the age of nine, when I won a black TAG in a karting event Picture Quote #1

To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car, you have to be in it. When you’re driving a 750hp machine at 320km/h, the noise and the vibrations are incredible. The G-force when you take big corners is like someone trying to rip your head off. You hit the brakes, and it feels as if the skin is being pulled off your body Picture Quote #1

I think social networks are really working for the drivers, because we’re able to talk directly to fans and they get first-hand information. And I think it’s great for the partners as well and the businesses that are involved in Formula One Picture Quote #1

I like old tunes when I’m driving. They’re fun and uplifting. Billy Ocean, that kind of thing Picture Quote #1

A lot of people think Formula One isn’t a sport because everyone drives a car when they go to work in the morning. But we’re pulling up to six G on a corner or during breaking, which is almost like being a fighter pilot. So we have to do a lot of work on our neck muscles Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I keep my weight low, although you need to be able to move your weight around the race car to change the balance. I’m 6ft and I’m 70kg so I haven’t much fat on me Picture Quote #1

In the car and in front of the camera I tend to be very calm but behind the scenes I can get fired up and passionate, I just don’t see the need to shout my mouth off in public Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I think as a 20-year-old you expect life to always be easy. You get given a good hand and the chance to race in Formula One. You think the driver can make the difference, can make up for everything else within the team. But that is not the case. You are racing in such a competitive sport so that doesn’t happen Picture Quote #1

To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car, you have to be in it. When you’re driving a 750hp machine at 200mph, the noise and the vibrations are incredible. The G-force when you take big corners is like someone trying to rip your head off. You hit the brakes, and it feels as if the skin is being pulled off your body Picture Quote #1

When I do retire, I know for a fact that I’ll never be able to replace the incredible feeling I get when I’m driving an F1 car Picture Quote #1

The fast, flowing parts, the high-speed corners, that’s where a Formula One car is at its best - changes of direction, pulling high g-forces left and right Picture Quote #1

When it comes to my racing career I’m very driven and very selfish. People who are around me at races will know that I’m a different person here than in my personal life. I completely blank people at races. I need to be focused. I’m rude Picture Quote #1

We all drive differently and have different styles. For me I need a car I can develop beneath me and feel comfortable in. If the car feels neutral and unbalanced it doesn’t work for me Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter who wins if I don’t. I only care if I win. I’m jealous of anyone else who wins Picture Quote #1

I always think I should try to get to bed early, but then I can’t stop myself from watching telly and fiddling around on the net Picture Quote #1

That Monaco crash was quite a big one - I pulled 33g when I hit the wall, which is a lot. It’s a weird sensation - like all my skin and flesh was being pulled off my bones Picture Quote #1

I can’t eat whatever I want, definitely not. I’m always controlled because I do a lot of fitness and triathlons, not just Formula One, so I always make sure I eat the right things Picture Quote #1

When I was in Japan with my girlfriend Jessica, she would have had acupuncture every day if she could.

I haven’t got the yacht any more. The cost of running it was crazy. But it was so much fun while I had it. I don’t regret it Picture Quote #1

Resting for me is fitness training Picture Quote #1

You look back and you remember the good, the bad and the ugly Picture Quote #1
