Jenson Button says he won't necessarily have a role at McLaren-Honda in 2015
2009 World Champion not thinking too far ahead

Jenson Button is refusing to look too far ahead in his career despite the news that McLaren are to renew their legendary partnership with Honda in 2015.
Button did give a thumbs-up to the partnership, however, and said that 2014's new rules - which stipulate 1.6-litre V6 turbocharged engines, a fuel flow limit and greater reliance on energy recovery systems - could persuade more manufacturers to compete. "For us as a team, I think it's good news for the future. But I also think for the sport as a whole, it's fantastic news. Having another engine manufacturer in the sport is good; we have four very strong engine manufacturers in the sport," he added. "With the new regulations, it's going to bring in other manufacturers and Honda being the first to announce that is great - and hopefully there will be more."
