Honda Formula 1 driver Jenson Button featured high in the time sheets after competing in a triathlon last weekend.

According to the organisers of the Sevenoaks Triathlon, the Honda driver took 91 minutes to swim 400m, ride 27 kilometres and run 8 kilometres around Knole Park, in the southeast English county of Kent.

Button, 28, who competed alongside his physio Mike Collier, finished 16th of the 250 triathletes, about eight minutes behind the winner, Kent News added.

Collier, ten minutes behind Button, placed 47th.

Button's official website revealed that the British racer regularly competes in triathlons, and even won a similar event in Lanzarote over the winter.
