Jenson Button has warned the Honda F1 team that he will not accept another season of underachievement in 2008. Button won a meagre six points in 2007, while team-mate Rubens Barrichello failed to get off the mark for the first time in his F1 career.
“The car was a complete dog, and I’m just not interested in racing like this any more, ” he told the Mail on Sunday. BBC
Button said he was jealous of the success of Lewis Hamilton, who finished second in the drivers’ championship in his first year in the sport, because his McLaren car was a better one.
“I did a bloody good job with what was given to me and I’m not afraid to say so, ” Button said. “I remain one of the best drivers but until I’m given a competitive car, it’s difficult to prove it. “
Button won his first Grand Prix last year in Budapest, Hungary, after seven years of racing. He said his Honda car for this year’s championship was “just shocking and difficult to drive. ” CanadianPress
