To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race theres a mix of excitement and fear. If its a wet track, then its worse as youre not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most. – Jenson Button
I keep my weight low, although you need to be able to move your weight around the race car to change the balance. Im 6ft and Im 70kg so I havent much fat on me. – Jenson Button
I cant eat whatever I want, definitely not. Im always controlled because I do a lot of fitness and triathlons, not just Formula One, so I always make sure I eat the right things. – Jenson Button
The only time I think about life beyond F1 is when I contemplate becoming a dad. But theres no way thats going to happen while Im still racing. To be successful in F1 you need to be very selfish in lots of ways and youre away from home for long periods. Thats not the kind of father I want to be. – Jenson Button
