Button responds to Stewart

Jenson Button, hesitant about his future, had been advised in recent weeks by big names in motorsport. Everyone advised him to prefer stability by remaining loyal to Ross Brawn. Ultimately, the world champion preferred McLaren and Sir Jackie Stewart did not hesitate to affirm that his compatriot had made the wrong choice, by joining a team where he could not gain the upper hand over Lewis Hamilton.

Jenson Button, although respectful of his elder, affirms that his choice is indeed the best. But the Briton prefers to be careful before contradicting the three-time world champion. “ Jackie is always frank, Button confides to the Daily Mail. I get along very well with him and it is always interesting to listen to his comments. »

However, Jenson Button is sure of himself and affirms that his departure to McLaren follows a certain logic. “ In the end, I know the environment in both (stables), I know what I want, and I want a new challenge. If Jackie was running again, I'm sure he would feel the same way. »
