Win a ride with Button

The British Grand Prix at Silverstone is offering British Grand Prix ticket holders a ride of a lifetime with F1 driver Button if they purchase tickets between March 10 and May 1. The three prizes will be drawn by lottery. The ride will be in a Honda road car. It is not clear whether the prize will be part of the Grand Prix weekend but that is certainly the implication.

"The British Grand Prix is always a very special occasion for me," Button says. "It's my home race and I have such fantastic support from the British fans. Silverstone is a race I would love to win in front of such a huge home crowd. It would be such an incredible feeling. In the meantime, I'm glad to give something back to the fans and I look forward to thrilling the three lucky winners with a hot-lap of the circuit in a Honda sports car."
