Button Determined to be More Aggressive at Spa

After recording just two points at Valencia on what he considers a strong car, Jenson Button declared he will be more aggressive at Spa. The Brit currently holds an 18-point lead over his team-mate, Rubens Barrichello, who moved second in the championship standings.

Button reckons he must be more aggressive not only in driving, but with strategies too, if he is to retain his first position in the championship and win the driver's title.

"It is better to be consistent and not crash, but if you are consistent and get two points it is not enough. I am going to go to Spa and be more aggressive, for sure. In every way, not just driving, but with the strategy and with the tyres", disclosed the Brit.

"It is a very difficult season this year because we have had some really poor weekends and some really strong weekends, and this was the first time when we have had a strong car that I have not been able to get the most out of it", said Jenson, admitting his frustration with his European GP result.

The Brit also said he reckons the two Red Bull's will be fighting each other, taking some of the heat of his back. "The good thing is that the Red Bulls are still going to be fighting. They are going to be quick for sure over the next few races, especially the next one at Spa, although I don't think the McLarens will be as quick as they were here", added Jenson.

"I think we have sorted out a few of our issues, and we have some updates, so Rubens and myself will be very quick at Spa", concluded Button.
