"But you always want more."None of us are happy about where we are. We want to win."Every driver here thinks about his position and whether there is a possibility in the future to in. If not, you have to go somewhere else."We simply don't have the best car," Button added. "We're working on it, but whether we can fight at the top next year remains open."He said the top ten in Hungary will be difficult for McLaren, but predicted a strong weekend for Red Bull."They have a good chance to win here," said Button.
