McLaren Racing Director Eric Boullier has praised Jenson Button, noting the Briton has helped ‘steer the team and give it direction for development’.
Boullier was brought in at McLaren at the start of the season, his appointment and the return of Ron Dennis as Group CEO came off the back of a dismal 2013. While the Woking outfit continues to struggle though, and remains someway off the likes of Mercedes and Red Bull Racing, Boullier has still been very impressed with Button.
“Despite our current lack of pace, Jenson continues to be an absolutely fantastic ambassador for the team,” Boullier stated ahead of this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix, round seven in the 2014 Formula 1 World Championship.
