    Very sad news for the Button family and it appears so unexpected. A thoroughly nice bloke too. An appalling start to Jenson's year sadly.

    So sad to hear this, he was a great man. My thought is with Jenson and Family...

    This is sad news as he always seemed like a nice guy.

    From everything I've seen he was one of a few genuinely nice guys, seems to have been a friend to pretty much everyone in the paddock, and proof that you don't need to be a piranha to succeed in F1. Sad times for Jenson and the rest of his family
    "I" before "E" except after "C". Weird.

    Very bad news to start the day. He was always quite a character in the paddock and always there to support his son.
