Lucky Strike BAR Honda's Jenson Button was fired up for his first win at Canada, and made a near perfect start by qualifying second. It just didn't work out though.
BAR-Talk.com thought he was looking good for his first win. "So did we," exclaimed Jenson. "Starting second we thought we were looking quite strong."
So what went wrong? "I had oversteer on the first stint, and we changed the wing level at the first stop, but still we just didn't have the pace."
"I knew we could change the car to help the oversteer, but you know straight away you're not quick enough to win the race."
"We struggled here a lot and it's difficult to understand why. We've got to get back to the drawing board and figure out what we've done wrong here."
