Button staying on at McLaren
Print Edition
Jenson Button has decided against retirement and will remain with McLaren for the 2016 Formula One season.
The 2009 world champion had been considering quitting after this season, but both sides announced yesterday that he would continue for another year.
The team has struggled this season with new engine provider Honda, leaving Button鈥檚 future in doubt.
鈥淥ver the past month or so I have done quite a lot of thinking, and it is no secret that I was at one point in two minds about my future,鈥 the 35-year-old British driver said.
Button, who has been with McLaren for six years, said he decided to stay after extensive talks with team chairman and CEO Ron Dennis.
Teammate Fernando Alonso is also expected to stay with McLaren for 2016.
Button has a two-year contract with McLaren through 2016, but there were clauses allowing either side to terminate the deal after one year. Dennis said 鈥渢hat option immediately became an irrelevance鈥 after his talks with Button.
