Jenson Button is set to race a Jaguar C-Type that once belonged to fellow Formula 1 world champion Juan Manuel Fangio in next weekend’s Goodwood Revival.The famous car is now owned by Button, who will share driving duties in the Freddie March Memorial Trophy with his close friend and GT racer Alex Buncombe.
The car was subsequently shipped back to his native Argentina, and having passed through the local importer it was raced by other drivers for several years. “My beauty’s prior owner was the exceptional Juan Manuel Fangio who dominated F1 in the 1950s by winning five World Championships,” Button wrote on Instagram. “He bought XKC018 as a road car, she’s the only bronze Jaguar C-type produced by the factory. Cool, right?
