Jenson Button has urged McLaren to attempt to bring more updates to the car in time for the British Grand Prix.
Button finished Sunday's European Grand Prix a full minute behind the race winner Sebastian Vettel, although he was hampered by a KERS failure halfway through the race. Immediately afterwards, Button called on McLaren to take more risks, and he says that he will return to the McLaren Technology Centre on Wednesday to try to bring some of the planned developments forward.
"We have to push and hope we get a lot of improvements for the next race," Button told Sporting Life. "So I'll be going around tomorrow and seeing what we have. I know some of the things we have, and some of the things we have for the race after (in Germany). But hopefully we can try and get them for Silverstone.''
Button also warned that McLaren needs to be prepared to hit the ground running at Silverstone to make sure it minimises the impact of the off-throttle blown diffuser ban.
"It's going to be a weird race for everyone given the change in the regulations with the blown diffuser. We have to be wary of that because there will be quite a big difference for all of us. It's about being ready when you arrive there, understanding which direction you need to take. That's because you could really hurt your Friday in practice by not understanding where you are.''
