Button hoping English rain keeps falling
Hoping it might boost his chances
Jenson Button is hoping for more English weather at Silverstone this weekend.
Rain swept through Northamptonshire on Thursday ahead of the British grand prix, raising the McLaren driver’s hopes of a good result at home against the usually-dominant Red Bulls.
More rain is forecast on Friday and Saturday, ahead of a drier race-day Sunday.
"If the weather’s like this," Button said on Thursday, "we’re going to have one hell of a race at the weekend. I’m hoping that this beautiful English summer weather continues!"
