    Interesting that he mentions that his idol as a young driver was Prost (to Hamilton's Senna).

    Most drivers in the F1 grid were inspired by Senna. Button is quite the exception in this regard.

    What do you mean, "doing better than Senna"? The fact that he's still alive?

    10 years ago he said it was Schumi.

    Button´s love for Prost is a new discovery. He only figured it out when people started comparing them (quite a stupid think to do IMO... the comparison I mean)

    Jenson has NEVER mentioned Schumacher positively that way. He is on record stating his unsavory view of the seven time champion.

    He has always held Prost in the highest regard and it was the French driver that have him his F1 test subsequently signed by Williams.

    This whole thread is just ridiculous.
    Jense - Mclaren MP4-25 :D
    MonzaOne :D

    Button had posters of Schumi on his bedroom wall when he was karting-junior formulae. Never heard of Prost being mentioned during that time.

    I have a magazine with Button interview in 2000, his idol was Michael Schumacher.
