I had to make sure the team were focused.We had a direction and they needed to prove that to me. Ron will say the same - that they did prove that to me that they were hungry, they had the resources to achieve in the future. Honda were hungry and werent going to give up. And thats what kept me here for another year and possibly other years in the future.When is the Australian GP on Sky Sports? Button and Alonso form the most experienced driver pairing in the sport but, even with young charger Stoffel Vandoorne waiting in the wings for his opportunity, the former world champion is adamant that he may continue beyond 2016.Theres definitely more to come.
