Button's new manager
Jenson Button has a new manager - but the word on the street is that he is not one of the establishment management names in F1 circles but rather a fairly low-key lawyer called John Byfield.
In 1997 Byfield popped up again as part of an attempt to revive the Pacific F1 team with Malaysian money. That deal never came off.
Byfield has also worked as a legal advisor to a number of F1 people including Bertrand Gachot and Button's former manager David Robertson.
