F1 LIVE: Marko breaks rank on Horner investigation as Norris calls out Verstappen | F1 | Sport

Jenson Button has played down the idea that Max Verstappen’s Formula One dominance has made the sport « boring ».

The Dutchman won all but three races last season on his way to a third consecutive title, but the Brit believes the sport is as entertaining as ever.

« We can say this is boring because one guy is winning all the races, [but] last year will go down in history, » Button told the Fueling Around podcast. « I have to say, if you look at the numbers and the results, yeah, it doesn’t look great.

« But I think we had some bloody good racing last year. Not all the races, but we have had some really good racing up and down the field. It wasn’t a walk in the park for Max either.

« I enjoyed the season – sprint races not so much, apart from Brazil, which was amazing. More races in Brazil, please! »
