RIP Mr.John Button:(
Rather than mourn his passing, I've got to tip my hat to a pretty damn cool life. The guy lived hard but he also worked hard, raced hard, raised himself a cool family -- including an F1 Champ -- and did it all with a unique style and charm all his own. Too young? Yeah, of course. But we should all be so fortunate to pack our years like the great John Button.
RIP. I'm sure he's very proud of Jense. Will definitely miss his pink shirt presence and bubbly character.
Instagram is flooded with tributes to John - he seemed to be universally loved. Such a sad loss for Jenson and fans of the sport he was a positive influence on. Really loved this photo most out of all of them and wanted to share. >8^\ ER Image Unavailable, Please Login
Such a shame, 70 today is much younger than it once was. No matter what happened on race weekend, he always seemed to be smiling and enjoying the day supporting his son. A nice contrast to some of the dour faces on the pit wall. RIP.
