The Button household in California will be welcoming a new member next summer, with Jenson Button and fiancée Brittny Ward expecting their first child.

The 2009 F1 world champion took to social media to convey the good news, posting a picture of the tiny Button in fetus mode.

'Brittny & I are Delighted to announce the new edition to the family currently having his first seat! Look how comfy he looks! #babybutton'.

Button and the 28-year-old model, who have been dating since 2016, were engaged last summer and will likely tie the knot later this year.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
