Jenson Button on his Formula 1 career
Following the news that Jenson Button will not race in Formula 1 in 2017, Autosport publishes his thoughts on several key moments from his career, which he discussed at length in an interview last weekend at Spa
Jenson Button announced at Monza on Saturday that he will step down from race duties with McLaren in Formula 1 for the 2017 season, remaining with the team as an ambassador and reserve driver with the option to return to the F1 grid in the future.
It means Button, who will make his 300th start later this year in Malaysia, could have just seven races left in his F1 career after this weekend.
