Button stuns rivals with Jerez pace
By Editor on Wednesday, February 6, 2013 Jenson Button and McLaren have fired the opening salvo of the 2013 world championship, stunning rivals with the pace of the new MP4-28 at Jerez.
Despite a technical problem, by the end of Tuesday's action Briton Button was almost a second clear of the rest of the field, headed by Mark Webber in the new Red Bull.
'I was surprised when I saw the (laptime on the) dash,' Button said, 'but the time doesn't mean anything.'
Perhaps not, but the competition was nonetheless impressed.
'I could have gone at Red Bull's pace, but not Button's,' Felipe Massa, who was otherwise happy with Ferrari's new F138, is quoted by Auto Motor und Sport.
