Jens Butt has issued Honda an ultimatum. He has stated that he is "not prepared to waste his career in uncompetitive equip." It looks like there might be one more driver up for grabs if testing proves unproductive. Would McLaren want him. An all Brit team. What a rivalry that would be. Not sure where else Butt. would go. (I don't like Jens) Williams, BMW?? Either way he needs to get in a car that works AND needs to prove that he's worth a damn. 1 win does not equal legend. :lol:

Jenson really is in a bad situation, he is not getting any younger thats for sure. He already once bought his way out of the Williams deal to drive for Honda, and now when Honda is struggling hard, I could only figure what is going on in his mind. PR wise I think he is a wanted man, also he has a reputation to outpace his teamies and in the lower categories he was very fast, but hey Quick-Nick was also pretty unstoppable in F3000 and was a very promising prospect for McLaren seat untill Räikkönen stepped in and "destroyed" his career. I still believe that Button is going to drive Honda for another season, but I'm sure that he has a contract that Honda should offer him a car to fight for the wins, otherwise the contract could be terminated...
