Martin Brundle has clarified that he will not be stepping back from his Sky Sports F1 duties despite rumors, confirming he will continue to cover 16 races per year. Jenson Button, who has been part of the broadcast team since 2019, also stated he is not replacing Brundle.
Utter clickbait nonsense Margaret, don’t be concerned. I’ve done 16 races per year for a good while now and continue to do so. In fact with the cancellations I am at 15 of the remaining 19 races this season, subject to world events of course, as always.
— Martin Brundle OBE (@MBrundleF1) April 13, 2026 Button, who has been part of the Sky Sports F1 broadcast team since 2019 after initially joining as a guest analyst for the 2018 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, also chimed in on the rumours. The 46-year-old added, "I am not positioned to replace Martin, he’s the man when it comes to commentary and insights. As much as I love jumping in when Martin is taking a well-deserved break I wouldn’t want to do more as I’ve got enough going on!" I am not positioned to replace Martin, he’s the man when it comes to commentary and insights. As much as I love jumping in when Martin is taking a well deserved break I wouldn’t want to do more as I’ve got enough going on!
