Resting for me is fitness training. (Jenson Button)
In my hometown there is a pub named after me - The Frome Flyer on Jenson Avenue. How cool is that?! View quote

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. View quote

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. View quote

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. View quote

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. View quote

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. View quote

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. View quote

It is such a special feeling to win a grand prix. View quote

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. View quote

My time at Honda was amazing. Some of my best times in Formula One, actually. I might not have won races, just one race, but I had a lot of fun. (Jenson Button)
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. View quote
Jenson Button
If I ever have a son, and if he wants to follow in my footsteps in Formula 1, my main responsibility will be to point out some of the negatives. View quote
Jenson Button
I felt confident at 24, but I am a better driver now. View quote
Jenson Button
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. View quote

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. View quote
Jenson Button
Women don't get the same opportunities that men get in racing, so they don't get to learn race craft. View quote
Jenson Button
It doesn't matter how much money you've got, or how many connections, there's always something you want that's out of reach. View quote
Jenson Button
It doesn't matter who wins if I don't. I only care if I win. I'm jealous of anyone else who wins. View quote
Jenson Button
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. View quote
Jenson Button
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)
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. View quote
Jenson Button
I always sleep really well, particularly before a race, when the adrenaline's pumping. View quote
Jenson Button
'Le Mans' is the only racing movie that is totally realistic. View quote
Jenson Button
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. View quote
