Just watching some Formula 1 news and they were interviewing Jenson Button. He's sitting out racing F1 next year. Said "can't use the R word" (referring to retirement) and plans to be back racing F1 in 2018.
He went around 4:30 at Oceanside a few years ago and definitely has the engine to be KQ territory. Should be exciting to have a guy of that caliber in our sport racing with age groupers in 2018. OK, so will he be on a Cervelo Beam bike or that F1 looking Diamondback....he clearly needs no sponsors!
He does not strike me as the type that wants any celebrity invite. On the interview (it's was on a sports show on a 24 hour Dubai Sports channel that is in my hotel), he specifically said, "I want to qualify for the Triathlon World Championships". I took this to mean Kona, not ITU worlds or Chattanooga
