MIRROR.CO.UK - Jenson Button will join Lewis Hamilton at McLaren in a British super team. Not since Jim Clark and Graham Hill in 1968 have two British champions put on a united front.
World champion Button finally turned his back on Brawn’s blundering after months of negotiations remained unresolved yesterday.
Button, 29, was highly impressed with McLaren’s Woking operation during avisit last Friday. But he has been driven into the arms of McLaren, Britain’s most famous Formula 1 team by Brawn’s bizarre tactics.
Kimi Raikkonen who was rumored to join McLaren, will quit the sport - at least for now.
As Brawn pleaded poverty, the exact cost of the Mercedes buyout was £110million.
Button and Hamilton, champions for the last two years, will go head-to-head next year with exactly the same machinery.
Boss Martin Whitmarsh has vowed to show no favouritism.
L3wi5 Hamiltoff's NOTE> NO FAVORITISM? HMMM... LIKE WHEN ALONSO WAS RACING FOR MCLAREN; THE SAME NO-FAVORITISM-POLICY?
