The Honda F1 star is flying in from his Lanzarote training camp to be at the show, where he will be making stage appearances and signing autographs for his fans.

"I am excited to be attending the show,” said Button, who is set to start pre-season testing in Valencia shortly. “It's been a couple of years since I was last able to visit so it’s great to have the chance to return and meet some of the fans whose support is so important to us throughout the year.

“The show is a real ‘must-do’ for fans of all forms of motorsport and this year looks to be no exception with some fantastic racing planned for the live action arena. I can't wait for the F1 action to begin again." 

Double WRC Champion Marcus Grönholm will be at the show on Friday

World class rallying will also be at the show with the confirmation that Ford driver Mikko Hirvonen, winner of last year’s Rally of Great Britain, will attend the Friday and Saturday.

The Finn, who finished third in the drivers standings behind Sébastien Loeb and his team-mate Marcus Grönholm, hopes to lead Ford’s World Rally Championship next season following Grönholm’s retirement. Grönholm is not putting his feet up though; the 2007 runner-up will also be at the show on Friday as he considers his options for the coming year.

Adult tickets start at £28.00 per day with children’s tickets costing £18.50. To book, visit www.autosport-international.com or call 0044 (0)870 040 0396.
