Former Formula 1 driver Jenson Button has tested a Honda Civic rallycross car at the Sebring circuit in the USA.
The 2009 F1 world champion tried out a Civic Supercar with Swedish team OlsbergsMSE in America on Wednesday.
Button is currently taking a break from Formula 1 but remains at McLaren as a reserve driver and ambassador.
He is considering his options for this year and has made no secret of his interest in competing in rallycross.
Button’s late father John competed in rallycross in the 1970s, first driving a Volkswagen Beetle and then a Golf.
The test with Honda-backed OMSE wasn’t Button’s first time trying out rallycross machinery, with the British racer driving a JRM Racing Mini RX at Lydden Hill in 2015 as part of a BBC F1 TV feature.
Button shared a photo and video of his Honda rallycross test on Instagram, thanking the OMSE team for the opportunity.
