London, 1 June 2006 - Player One Limited,

Jenson Button Grand Prix Racer. The objective of Jenson
Button Grand Prix Racer is to crown Formula 1 superstar
Jenson Button winner of the Class One Championship. Starting
as a Class Three driver, Jenson must work his way up the
classes by winning all of the championships. Starting in
Class Three as a beginner, you will then move on to
intermediate Class Two and then Class One, expert level, by
gaining the highest number of points at the end of each class
season. Upon completion of each race of each class you will
be awarded a certain number of points depending on your
finishing position. The driver with the most points at the
end of the championship season wins and is promoted through
the classes. As Jenson accesses higher classes, new tracks

Race mode you will compete against five other cars in the
tracks unlocked from the Championship mode, alternatively you
can improve your times by testing the unlocked tracks in Time
Trial mode before going head-to-head with other drivers. With
