Summary

Jenson Button is a former F1 world champion and one of the greatest racing drivers of his generation. Jenson grew up as part of a motor-racing-mad family under the guidance of his father, John, arriving at Williams as a 20 year-old, to being written off by some as a playboy and his fight back to the very pinnacle of his sport winning the world championship with Brawn GP in 2009

Since retiring Jenson owns a team in the electric off-road series, Extreme E will help revive Radford, the famed British coachbuilding outfit.
