’💃s iconic 2009 championship-winning Brawn GP F1 car will be sold at auction at the Miami Grand Pr𝓰ix later this year.

The car, which is owned by Button and was gifted at the end of his memorable 200ౠ9 campaign, has been part of his personal col⛄lection.

Bonhams will be resp♐onsi💃ble for the auction in Miami.

Butto✤n’s 2009 triumph was a fairytale story, with the team founded by legendary F1 team boss Ross 🃏Brawn following Honda’s shock decision to withdraw from the sport at the end of 2008.

On a shoestring budget, Brawn GP 💜turned up at the first race with the fastest ca🗹r and finished 1-2.

The team went on to win the constructors’ championship in their only season in F1 before🐎 Mercedes took over.

Button would win the championship with one race to spare, finishing ahead of Red 🅘Bull’s Sebastian Vettel in the 💟final standings.

: “This car represents the ultimate Formula 1 fairy tale – a revolutionary design that redefined what was possible.

“Chassis 001/01 is a piece of motorsport history, and its offering at auction is sure to c🐈aptivate co🍌llectors worldwide.

“We are honoured to present this unrepeatable opportunity over♉ the😼 Miami Grand Prix, a stage befitting its legendary status.”
