Merchandise Collections for Brawn GP & Jenson Button

23rd October 2009

Whilst not strictly for sailors, the new ‘Champions’ and ‘Victory’ ranges by Henri Lloyd have been designed to celebrate Brawn GP and Jenson Button’s respective successes in winning the 2009 FIA Formula One Constructors’ and Drivers’ Championships with one race of the season to go. Both collections feature caps, polos, sweats, Men’s, Women’s and Junior T-Shirts, each carrying their unique World Champion Logo branding.

Button came from a superb 14th place on the grid to finish in fifth place to secure the Drivers’ Championship in Brazil with 89 points, whilst his team mate Rubens Barrichello is currently placed third overall with 72 points ahead of the final race of the season in Abu Dhabi on Sunday 1 November.

Both ranges will be available to pre-order online here

Ross Brawn, Team Principal at Brawn GP said: “2009 has been a fantastic year for Brawn GP culminating in the wonderful weekend in Brazil which saw the team achieve our goal of the Constructors’ Championship and Jenson driving a superb race to secure the Drivers’ Championship. We hope that fans of the team will join our success and celebrations with the new ‘Champions’ and ‘Victory’ ranges available from our merchandise collection created by Henri Lloyd.”
