Jenson Button changed his McLaren Formula One™ car for something a little less grounded recently when the star took to the water in Monaco with J Craft luxury powerboat Torpedo R. The charismatic racing driver took the wheel of the 42ft motor cruiser Torpedo R, proving that his driving skill doesn’t just finish at cars.
J Craft CEO, Aleks Milakovic said, “Jenson looked very comfortable at the helm and he was clearly happy handling the Torpedo yacht at speed. Both Jenson’s Formula One™ car and the motor yacht Torpedo R have over 1,000bhp but I think the motor cruiser J Craft Torpedo R provided the more comfortable ride.”
Jenson Button was onboard the J Craft luxury powerboat Torpedo R while the boats were in the south of France to take part in the Riviera Runabout – a two day event for owners and guests held between Monaco and St-Tropez.
