Bahrain Grand Prix: Jenson Button fit and firing for his 250th F1 race

34-year-old McLaren driver cites mental and physical strength
‘The positives of a guy my age outweigh the negatives’

Jenson Button must wonder whether he nodded off for a brief aeon because suddenly he has a new boss at McLaren, a new team-mate too, his long-term girlfriend has become his fiancee and now someone has told him that on Sunday in Bahrain, if everything goes according to plan, he will start the 250th Formula One grand prix of his career.

The illusion that time moves more quickly as one gets older must seem disconcertingly real for the McLaren driver.
