Button expects interesting weekend in Valencia

Wednesday, August 19, 2009

Formula 1 championship leader Jenson Button is looking forward to get back in the car following the four week summer break. The Brawn GP driver is expecting the top drivers to be extremely close at this weekend's European Grand Prix.

"It's going to be great to get back racing again after the summer break and everyone at the team is looking forward to Valencia," Button said. "I've kept pretty busy over the past few weeks with the London Triathlon at the start of the month and then some time to relax with my family and friends but it's seemed like a long time without a race! Valencia is a beautiful city and the track is quite fun when it goes round the edge of the marina and over the bridge. It's quite challenging for the drivers with so many turns and the added factor of being surrounded by barriers means you have to maintain your concentration.

"There's been a lot of work going on at the factory following our shutdown and with the cars at the front being so close at the moment, it will be an interesting weekend."
