Jenson Button Starts 24th in Cup Series Debut For Rick Ware Racing
2 years agoThe #15 Rick Ware Racing Ford will have a new face behind the wheel this weekend, as Jenson Button will be piloting that car in the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas on Sunday. While the Rick Ware Racing cars are known to have disappointing finishes on race weekends, road courses have provided some better-than-average results for this group, including a 20th-place finish for Joey Hand in this car at Sonoma last year. This weekend, Jenson Button has shown decent speed, posting the 28th-fastest lap in practice on Friday before qualifying 24th on Saturday. Jenson Button is a 15-time winner in Formula One and won the Championship in that series back in 2009. A good run for this team on Sunday would be a top 20 finish at COTA.
