Special helmet for Button at Silverstone

Jenson Button will this weekend be lapping Silverstone with a very special one-off helmet designed by one of his fans. Aries Janssens from Denbighshire, UK, submitted his artwork via a competition on Jenson’s official website www.jensonbutton.com and it was his work that Jenson chose for his helmet this weekend.

“We had a staggering 7055 entries,” confirmed Button. “What I like about Aries’ design is that it’s very British and very me. By very me I mean patriotic. His design incorporates my logo and my name, and the ‘o’ in Jenson is a Union Flag button. Good work, Aries!”

As the winner of the competition, Aries will meet Jenson at this weekend’s Grand Prix and receives a pair of grandstand tickets to watch Sunday’s race – a prize donated personally by Jenson
