Because Hamilton scores an average more than twice as many points per race (7 rather than 3). Even after normalising for Jenson racing for a significant time with the old 10 point system, lewis still handily outscores him.bjpower wrote:why sign lewis when you can sign button?

Hamilton does strike me as an asshole sometimes. And I fear that the main reason why he didn't want his father as a manager anymore is because he wasn't happy with the deals and money he was making. And that's exactly why his manager now is Simon Fuller. We all know what Simon Fuller did with Beckham, he's gonna try and do the same with Hamilton. That's just my opinion anyway.DOn't take it too seriously, Hamilton just wants more money from McLaren.

While Button's a bloody good driver, he can't touch Hamilton and co. (Alonso, Vettel,Rosberg). Same for Webber, Massa and old Schumacher (i mean the schumi of today).

As for the subject.
I'd want Lewis to stay at Macca and win many titles with them; real racers. Not just some 'fizzy drinks' company that do not have any F1 heritage and unsure to commit in the long term.
Besides, Newey's domination won't take as long as some people assume. Just ask Brawn and Byrne.

But then again McLaren make so much money through his name so it's probably only fair that he demands a higher salary.
