Caption competition 1: Jenson Button
Caption competition
Having previously noticed the popularity of the caption competition thread in the forum I decided it was time to give the idea a slot of its own on the website.
And as today sees first public day at Autosport International I thought we should start things off with an earlier picture from the show.
Here’s Jenson Button at the opening of the 2004 event.
What use could the then-BAR driver find for a massive pair of novelty scissors?

Jenson is the new member of Cutting Crew and has released a remix of Died in your arms.. It is called ‘I Drove with my arms tonight’

Driving a BAR Honda or using these to trim my goatee, it’s all the same to me!
Maybe I’ll have more luck with a Braun?

Jenson takes desperate measures to ensure that he gets the lead role in the upcoming head & shoulders advert.

Jenson’s past may shed light on the mystery behind Vettel’s punctures

After having to cut the chicane to pass him, Jenson saw the irony in his Birthday present from Felipe.
