Jenson Button says he’s ready to make a return to full-time racing next year for the first time since 2019.Buoyed by his efforts behind the wheel of NASCAR’s Garage 56 Le Mans 24 Hours Chevrolet Camaro, and a part-time road and street course schedule in NASCAR Cup with Rick Ware Racing's Ford Mustang, Button revealed that he’s now ready to commit to a full-time programme next year – for the first time since his Super GT season in 2019.
“I didn’t think that I’d want to do a full season again, because of how busy the schedule always is, but I feel that I’ll be racing in something next year doing the full season,” said Button. When asked by Motorsport.com if he’d been keen on racing in IMSA’s GTP class, Button replied: “Yeah, I would. Who knows what could happen in the future, whether it’s WEC, IMSA or some more NASCAR races in the future. But I’ll definitely be leaning on Jim [France] a little for that.”Photo by: JEP /Button says time spent with NASCAR president and Grand-Am founder France has created a bond between them, thanks to the huge interest that the Garage 56 project brought to NASCAR.
“I don’t think the weekend could’ve gone any better, Jim was very happy – he was awake for almost all of the race! – and sharing that emotion together was pretty awesome.”Motorsport Images
