Button has attempted robbery on Saturday night (6) in Sao Paulo
In addition to the current world champion, were in the same vehicle her father, John, the physiotherapist Mike Collier, and also his manager Richard Goddard. Despite the threat of assault, nothing was stolen.
The Briton told the newspaper 'Mail on Sunday' as the episode happened. "We were coming back from the track, passing next to a slum and going very slowly because of traffic. The next thing I saw was a man with a gun. Our man [the driver] turned the car and floored," reported Button, which was relieved not to have brought to Brazil his girlfriend, model Jessica Michibata Japanese.
"Then we saw all six men were armed. My driver was a legend. It was scary. I do not know if they knew who they were ambushed," the pilot. Reportedly, the police driver had to beat a few cars stopped in traffic to desvincilhar of the assailants.
The British team also noted in its statement that the security will be improved for Sunday. "The authorities of St. Paul also acted with efficiency and will provide additional security for transporting Jenson and other leaders of McLaren for the Interlagos circuit for the Grand Prix of Brazil."
