Jenson Button, British Formula One world champion, was seen relaxing during the rained-off day on Oct. 9 at Suzuka, Japan.
The FIA Formula One World Championship’s qualifying round on Saturday has been pushed to Sunday due to torrential rain, making the round just ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix.
Button seemed to be enjoying the lifting of tension and had some time to share a personal story.
“I had an American come up to me at the Heathrow airport, a few months back, saying that she and her family are big fans of mine,” Button told reporters.
“After I thanked her saying I did not know that Formula One was so big in America, she said they’ve got all my records and all my albums.
“I said, ‘Fantastic, you think I’m Chris Martin don’t you?’” Button said with a laugh.
The Formula One driver has often been noted to visually resemble Martin of English alternative rock band Coldplay. The two are also similar on other counts—both come from southwest England and are only three years apart in age.
