Button Lipped

I almost felt bad for ripping into Button's ass yesterday about monetary disputes when I read an article that he was only looking for $8 million but then I realized it wasn't a dollar sign by the 8 and instead that of the pound sterling. While £8 million still isn't totally ridiculous in F1 circles, especially for a newly crowned world champion... I still don't feel bad.

He got paid quite well all those years Honda were giving him shitty cars. He should give back. Receive a few paltry millions as opposed to many and just get on with it, his dream of being the first Briton to ever win back to back world championships. If he pulls that off, then he'll have more of a right to flat out demand money. Until then he should just be happy he's in a good car with a good team.
