Brawn ban Button from McLaren activities

Brawn GP will not allow world champion Jenson Button to be involved in any team activities for McLaren before the end of the year.

Button sealed his move to McLaren earlier this week, and Brawn chief executive Nick Fry told The Guardian: “Jenson will not be doing anything at all for McLaren until the end of this calendar year.

“And if he does, we will be looking on it very dimly.”

Fry added: “He didn’t have any obligations to us in 2010, but there are issues with regard to the [McLaren contract] signing process on which we are in discussion with him at the moment.

“There are other constraints on what Jenson can do between now and the end of the year which we will be rigorously enforcing.”
