| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, Spaners here. Welcome to Miss Apex. And today we continue our series looking back at the careers of the brave and bold in Formula One. This week, we look back to the career of a British institution, a world champion, a broadcaster that brings fantastic insight and charm to our TV screens. I'm talking, of course, of Jensen Button. And I am not the person that has all the knowledge about these things. |
| 0:23.3 | So someone who's done research and work and is generally right about things, it's our quiz master, Chris Catman Turner. |
| 0:29.9 | Hello, Chris. |
| 0:31.1 | Hi, Spaners. It's very, very hot today. I'm going to try not make like one of Jensen's engines from his days at Honda |
| 0:37.8 | where they just expired towards the end. So if I, if I keel over, send help. Yeah, I think though |
| 0:43.2 | a lot of people will will actually remember Jensen Button as Fernando Alonzo's friend who used to |
| 0:49.8 | just poodle around at the back of the grid in that doomed McLaren Honda. But just note, it is July 1st when we're recording this. |
| 0:56.9 | Of course, this won't come out until the 10th, |

| 1:03.6 | it looks like we're crying, but it's sweat. |
| 1:05.7 | Okay, Jensen, Bunn. |
| 1:08.1 | Such a kind of charming, charismatic part of the Formula One landscape. |
| 1:13.4 | Absolutely, and I think I have to have responsibility here not to let my fandom, as you can |
| 1:18.6 | see, YouTube viewers by my flags and shirts that I'm wearing today, influence my opinion |
| 1:24.4 | here, and I've got to have a bit more of an objective look at the career |
| 1:27.5 | of one of my heroes. And you're writing that many F1 fans will know him from his commentary and |
| 1:31.9 | panetry, but I think a surprising number of our listeners will have never actually seen him race. |
| 1:36.5 | No, see, this is the problem with the DTS boom. I'm not gatekeeping DTS people, but yeah, |
| 1:43.6 | the fan space has massively, massively blown up. |
| 1:48.0 | And so to me, Jensen Button and even that Honda McLaren era feels like it just happened. |
| 1:53.1 | And it doesn't actually really feel like his Braun championship was that long ago. |
