That's a shame - I'd have loved to have seen him win at Le Mans before retiring.

It'll be interesting to see who Porsche bring in.

Sad to see him stop racing. Though I'm sure we'll still get his presence at a lot of the events.


Reading that article above though....that's one hell of a garage he has if they're referring to his personal collection!

That's a shame. Was hoping he'd hand around for a bit and add an LM win to his CV but he doesn't seem to care so much about it.

But it does open a seat so maybe Nick Tandy or Earl Bamber will get a drive.

Tandy deserves it, but will they want a big name?

And? Hulkenberg had a contract with Force India when he raced last year. It's not like Button is going to be doing any driving at McLaren.

Button is having a year sabbatical so this has real potential...
