Formula 1 driver Jenson Button has revealed that he has signed up a number of his McLaren mechanics without their knowledge to join him in this summer's triathlon.
The 34-year-old will take on the fitness challenge on July 12 as part of his Jenson Button Trust Triathlon, which benefits Cancer Research UK.
"I drive for the best team in the world and I have the most fantastic mechanics around me," the Daily Mail quotes Button as saying. "I am challenging them to put down their spanners for one day to come and take me on in my Triathlon on July 12.
"I may have actually signed some of them up for it already without them knowing – I am sure they will thank me for it! And will Cancer Research UK who we are raising money for this year."
Button's Trust is in its third year.
