Jenson Button disappointed by ruling

With Lucky Strike BAR Honda celebrating their 'Jensongate' victory over Williams, Jenson Button has expressed his displeasure at the decision.
Speaking shortly after the decision was announced, Jenson Button commented "Naturally I am disappointed by the ruling, but as a matter of principle, I firmly believe in standing by the decision the CRB have reached today.
"BAR have been extremely professional at the race track during this process, and I expect this to continue. I look forward to joining the Williams team in the future."
It remains to be seen exactly when Jenson will join Williams. The CRB ruling does not exclude each party reaching a commercial agreement over drivers, and Williams could yet offer a substantial compensation package to BAR in exchange for Jenson.
