Benetton and Renault In 2001, although still under contract with Williams, Button drove for Benetton which had just been purchased by Renault. He had a dismal season; the car, which was constantly under development that year, was never fast, nor was Button. He did, however, place fifth at the German Grand Prix, but finished a disappointing seventeenth in the drivers championship.

BAR After his replacement at Renault, in early 2003 Button joined the BAR team, alongside former World Champion Jacques Villeneuve. Contrary to press speculation, the two drivers had a good relationship,[citation needed] despite the former World Champion inadvertently spoiling a potential points finish during their first race together as teammates. However, as the season progressed, Button gained the upper hand in qualifying and also enjoyed better luck in races. Button's best result of the season was fourth place in Austria. However, he crashed heavily during Saturday practice in Monaco,[5] causing him to miss both the race and the following testing session at Monza. By the end of the season, though, things were looking up, and at the 2003 United States Grand Prix Button led a lap for the first time.

Pre-season testing seemed to suggest that Honda would have one of the strongest race packages on the grid, but the 2006 season didn't deliver as hoped. It proved to be a season with both highs and many lows, with Button attaining his first ever Grand Prix win at the 2006 Hungarian Grand Prix. To begin with, at the 2006 Bahrain Grand Prix he secured 5 points with 4th place, and the 2006 Malaysian Grand Prix landing himself an early podium with 3rd. However, at the Australian Grand Prix, after setting a stunning pole position lap time, Jenson blew an engine on the last lap in the race whilst coming third, purposefully stopping approximately 20m from the finish line, to avoid an engine penalty - which many considered to be a curious tactical move. Races since have consisted of poor qualifying and poor races. He has secured a few more points, but a very low point was the 2006 Monaco Grand Prix where he qualified 14th, being knocked out in the 2nd qualifying session, and only managing to finish 11th. The qualifying of the 2006 British Grand Prix was also a disaster - especially - in front of his home crowd. In the first session, after one flying lap, he got pulled into the Weighbridge and was released with very little time left remaining in the session. Bizarrely the team failed to send him back out in what time was left and so he failed to get into the second qualifying session and so started the 2006 British Grand Prix from 19th. Despite a strong start, Button spun off on lap 8 due to an engine failure. Image File history File links JensonButtonpodium. ...

At the 2006 Canadian Grand Prix, Button managed to out-qualify his teammate for the first time since Imola. However, after battling with David Coulthard in 8th, Button got passed by him and lost his chance for a point. Another retirement occurred at the 2006 United States Grand Prix when Jenson was spun by Juan Pablo Montoya (in an expensive wreck that took out 7 cars) and was forced to retire due to accident damage. At the 2006 French Grand Prix, Jenson Button retired once more due to an engine failure. Qualifying for the German Grand Prix, however, brought a ray of sunshine into the bleak performance of qualifying this season. After a slightly shakey Q1, where he, once again, got pulled into the weighbridge - Jenson managed to get onto the second row of the grid with P4. After running for a while during the race in a strong P3, Jenson eventually finished back in P4.

Button took the first win of his career in 2006 at a chaotic 2006 Hungarian Grand Prix - the 113th Grand Prix start of his career.[1] In doing so he overcame a 10-grid slot penalty for changing his engine (the second driver after Räikkönen to win a race despite this penalty), which meant he started 14th. The race was badly affected by heavy rain. Button passed a number of drivers in the early laps - including championship contender Michael Schumacher - and was up to fourth by lap 10. Following the retirement of leading drivers Kimi Räikkönen (accident) and Fernando Alonso (driveshaft failure) he went on to win the race by over 40 seconds from Pedro de la Rosa and Nick Heidfeld. Alonso was behind Button on the racetrack when he retired, although Button still had one pitstop to make.[9] Button's win beats Nigel Mansell's 1989 win from 12th on the grid at the Hungaroring. Jenson Button was the first British driver to win since David Coulthard in March 2003 and the first English F1 driver to win since Johnny Herbert won the European Grand Prix in 1999.

The Turkish Grand Prix held many expectations due to the previous race, and Jenson ended a strong 4th. The next three races, Italy, China, and Japan all gave Jenson strong points positions with 4ths and 5ths. In the last 4 races of the season, Jenson had the third largest total of points of all the drivers. This prompted him to make a bid to be part of the title race next year.[10] A hard sought after 3rd place in the 2006 Brazilian Grand Prix from 14th (due to problems with traction control during qualifying) tied up the year for Jenson with 56 points in 6th place.

Former British world champion Damon Hill aired doubts over Button's hopes to be a championship contender at Honda over the coming season, saying, "if he is serious... he has to get himself in a car that is a championship contender."[12] Alan Henry writing in The Guardian 2007 F1 season guide, predicted: "Button will win a couple more races but is not a title contender."[13] He was proved to be wrong as the Honda car proved to be aerodynamically poor. So poor in fact, the new car was actually slower than the old one with which Super Aguri were racing with, albeit updated. Honda decided against dropping the car, opting to see out the season with the current one.
