McLaren: “Button will voluntarily help Hamilton”

McLaren: “Button will voluntarily help Hamilton”

While the Yeongam paddock empties on the Sunday night of the Korean GP, ​​the only topic of discussion is the strategies that the teams will adopt in the last two races of the season.

According to Christian Horner "it makes no sense" for McLaren to continue to support Jenson Button in the fight for the world championship and according to the Red Bull Racing boss the reigning world champion should now lend a hand to his teammate Lewis Hamilton.

“For us, the strategy is clear,” said McLaren boss Martin Whitmarsh. “We don't really have to say anything to our drivers. Jenson will offer his help to Hamilton voluntarily because he knows we have treated him fairly throughout the season. And he also knows that he will win only with a miracle” added Whitmarsh.

While at Red Bull Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel are only separated by a small gap, Button's gap is 42 points. However Whitmarsh said he was convinced that Red Bull should also choose: “Logic says they should bet everything on Webber. But the team's heart beats for Vettel, obviously I don't expect a clear stance on this from them."
