Obviously he's even less helpful than other drivers in interviews on the topic, but he's said things that to my mind indicate he's definitely been looking for something else to do. As for Hulkenberg, he's got these other options now. Not as lucrative as an F1 drive, but then again endurance racing doesn't have this constant downward pressure from the big teams screwing with the driver market.<br /><br />Aaaand Button. There's a lot of talk about the symbolism of returning to Williams in what would almost certainly be his last big move...but then again,why would he walk away from Macca and Honda after putting up with all the BS this year? Unless there's something seriously wrong happening behind the scenes, which could well be the case, JB is patient enough to see the potential. It's an easy call from the outside - he's likely to bail if these rumors are true - but then again, he saw the whole Brawn mess playing out pretty well and didn't jump ship when everyone, including myself, had written off that team entirely before the season had even begun.gravit8ednoreply@blogger.com
