I smiled every single time Jenson Button appeared in the Brawn documentary

If you want to watch the Brawn GP documentary but you don’t want to give money/support to Disney or don’t have a Disney+ account, all 4 episodes are here

I highly recommend watching it, whether you were a fan in 2009 or not - it was very well done

Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story all episodes 1080p: link

In 2009, competing in the most expensive and technologically advanced racing series on Earth, the impossible happened. An understaffed, underfinanced and independent team won the World Championship, with a team that cost just £1. Go behind the scenes of this Formula 1 fairytale with the people who were there, on the track, in the garage and the boardroom, giving their own thrilling versions of a miraculous year. Expect exclusive access to the F1 archives, much of it previously unseen - from a year that global sport will never forget, with contributions from British F1 driver Jenson Button and Ross Brawn, who led the team to victory.

i know you have a lot of brocedes lore but do you happen to have any jenson button lore? that man is so interesting to me and idk why

he's too hot to have lore

i'm screaming at this moment in the brawn gp doc where the brazilian journalists are trying to curse jenson from winning the 2009 brazilian gp by not only setting up one ladder for him to walk under from the restaurant exit but also setting up another ladder for their car to drive under once they're at the hotel parking lot

People on twitter/X are sooo close to figuring out the real reason why Andretti got rejected (money). They're like, "if andretti and GM couldn't get in, then who can?"

And it's like fellas...

That's the whole point. They wouldn't let anyone in bc they don't want an eleventh team bc they would all get less money as a result. F1 was always going to reject their bid because all ten teams would clearly vote 'no', especially ones that need all the prize money they can get.

i need james vowles to record a nighttime story or smth

that man’s voice is so soothing

I'm watching the Brawn documentary with Keanu Reeves (which is great, btw) and the old footage is so wild, in terms of: * Christian Horner's glow-up into his 40s and 50s should be studied for science * As should Jenson Button's complete lack of aging whatsoever * Seb always looks cute * So does Mark Wibba (although: see above "glow-up")

listening to montezemolo and horner speak is making my blood boil lol

My mum on Christian Horner

“He’s a right bastard isn’t he”

"luca was apoplectic after the hearing, flavio was going bananas, you know, the world had gone mad"

say what you want about christian horner, but the man sure does know how to string a wonderful sentence together

love how they're explaining the changes for the 2009 f1 regulations are supposed to create closer racing and we are here over a decade later still trying to create closer racing with new regulations
