INTERVIEW: Jenson Button on Taking NASCAR to Le Mans

T’S OUR FIRST PODCAST INTERVIEW! Alanis, Elizabeth, and Nolan interview legendary driver Jenson Button about what it was like driving the Garage 56 NASCAR entry at Le Mans with Hendrick Motorsports… and yes, he has a Boyfriend of the Week. They also go through the history of F1 drivers participating in the 24h of Le Mans (including Liz’s favorite, Graham Hill), and track walk their way through the Red Bull Ring. Remember: if you can’t win, you also can’t lose.
