Jenson Button's last F1 race: 'I arrived with dreams and leave with memories'

Jenson Button could be reaching the end of the road of his Formula One career.

The McLaren driver from Somerset says today's race is "probably" going to be his last.

He was already not going to race in F1 in 2017, with the team holding an option on him in 2018.

Posting on Instagram today though, his mind seemed made up:

Sorry, this content isn't available on your device.

I'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone that has helped and supported me through the years including family, friends, team members and fans and last but not least my Dad who I'm hoping is looking down on us with pride.

I arrived with dreams and leave with memories.

– Jenson Button
