The current Formula One World Championship leader, Jenson Button, has confirmed that he will be riding a SCOTT bike for the 2009 London Triathlon in August.
Button will be racing for the ‘Make A Wish Foundation’ and with thousands of pounds already donated in sponsorship money, he has been spending his free time between F1 races to train up in the hills of Monaco on his Addict R1 road bike. For the main event itself, Button will be competing on a custom painted Plasma LTD.
Ed Waterston, UK Marketing Manager for SCOTT Sports, said “Jenson has been a fan of SCOTT bikes for several years, and we are very excited to be supporting him. For someone with such an appreciation of speed and technology to prefer our bikes is obviously a fantastic accolade.”
