Default British driver, British engine, British chassis...

3 reasons of why I think Williams will get Jensen Button at whatever cost next year. It's the heritage, when is the last time you see all these 3 combinations in one team, it's old school man and it need to work this time. Obviously the Cosworth is producing more power and better reliablity(judging from their bullet proof reliablity this year) than the BMW V8 because Williams have tested it in Valencia (is it?) and you'll have to be a complete nutter to pick the weaker one. So.....

GO BRITANNICA!!!

yes that seems like a winning combination , if you want an all british team go watch A1, button is over-hyped...

Button has outclassed Sato this season, and ofcourse rember Villeneuve now shallow insults? U can't really be too shit to embaress a former world champ even not on his best form!

Buttons smooth talent is brill even if he hasnt fully delivered, but okay just cus hes good and from Formula Ford doesnt mean hes the next Senna like everyone thinks in this country!

senna, schumi, prost, alonso, and the list will go on, all won races in the time it will take button. stop holding on to him let him go, he isn't good. smooth driving isn't really a good style to drive with, look how far it got coulthard

1st you rip it out of Button, then you come back with dissing old chisel jaw braveheart!?!?

Put Jenson in a Relault or Macca and he would certainly be worthy of those cars potential. And win plenty of races.

First BAR's car is really fast thru the turns, they are even faster then most/all other cars.
but on a track like monaco when straight speed isn't important he still doesn't show speed?
