Jenson Button Retired From Canadian Grand Prix To Make Smores With Car
Jenson Button Retired From Canadian Grand Prix To Make Smores With Car-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:32

An Englishman by the name of Jenson Button visiting Montreal’s scenic Parc Jean-Drapeau lit a fire using his McLaren’s Honda engine. Button was racing in the Canadian Grand Prix on the park’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve when fiery engine trouble forced him to retire on lap 11.

No drivers or marshals were harmed in the starting of this car-b-que, however, neither were any marshmallows. Button retired from the race shortly afterwards.

Visitors to the island park will have to find a less volatile flame for cooking.

This Car Used To Be Impossible To Find
I remember when I was first starting to learn about cars online how difficult it was to track down certain cars you’d hear about in the margins. A BMW M1 rally car, which only ran a few short events? You’d be lucky to find a picture or two. Now here...

This Might Be The Best-Sounding Car To Nearly Kill Its Driver
The thing about me is every time I encounter a new video of the Matra V12, I post it. It’s that simple! Matra’s V12s have a bit of a cult following, in part because they are weird, in part because they were wildly successful but only for a short...
