Jenson's Dream Becomes Reality
posted by Lee McKenzie on 19/10/2009
“I’m World Champion Baby” is what Jenson Button shouted at me live on BBC 1 on Sunday in front of 8.9 million viewers! And what a deserving champion he is. Yesterday saw him drive one, if not the best race of his life. I have known Jenson for a while but it was still difficult to keep emotions in tact during the interview although this little live hugging on BBC 1 still caught me off guard! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv1_cr3lCd0
The difficult thing is I love interviewing, and really like and respect Rubens Barichello who is a ture gentleman and sportsman. He saw his dream shattered, as did Sebastian Vettel, another really great guy and a pleasure to work with. Just off a crazy plane trip home! Will write more in week.
