  • Intro:

    Jenson Button, McLaren-Honda MP4-30, 2015 Formula One, Geneva Motor Show

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jenson Button, McLaren-Honda driver:

    "Behind me is the new car for the season, which is the MP4-30, which is the new McLaren-Honda, which is a very exciting new partnership, the new era of McLaren-Honda. We've done all the testing, pre-season. It's been difficult, as it always is with a new package. The new power unit and everything is so much more complex than it used to be in Formula One because of the ERS (Energy Recovery System) system, the electronic motor. So we've been working through a lot of checks and system checks and what have you, trying to get as many laps on the car as possible, to be ready for (the first race of the 2015 season in) Melbourne."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jenson Button, McLaren-Honda driver:

    "To have Fernando Alonso alongside myself, he's a guy that I've got a lot of respect for and we've raced together, for many, many years now, since 2001 I think. So, lots of experience there to build this team up and to move us forward."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jenson Button, McLaren-Honda driver:

    "I've worked with Honda for many years, back in the noughties, and I've worked for McLaren for the last five years, but never as one, as one package. So it really means a lot. The year, 1980s era of McLaren-Honda was exceptional. The two best drivers in the world at that moment in time (Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna) and probably two of the best still that have raced in a Formula One car racing in the best car, the best package."
