Honda F1 star Jenson Button takes a Civic Type R around the famed German widow-maker, the Nurburgring, and just to make things a bit more interesting he does it while its raining and answering questions from an interviewer. Even for a man used to the fast pace of F1, the ride around the ‘ring is, in Button’s own words, “a rush”. Follow the jump to watch a video of the event in full.

I miss driving in Germany.
To all of you who haven’t done it, go.
I firmly believe the days of limitless speed are soon coming to an end…
Cause I am from Germany I can say we would go mad if any stupid politician steels our last place of freedom. I think that no other country has such a strong connection to cars. Even my girlfriend would be pissed if she wasn’t allowed to drive faster than 80mph on an Autobahn.
I agree, but I think it is coming.
Maybe not, if technology gets better and better, but the envronMENTALists are getting louder!!!
