Button gives hint for drivers: 'You shouldn't do this in these conditions'

This season, Formula One drivers have had to deal with rainy conditions before. In Monaco, the race started off soaking wet, but ended as a dry race. There is a good chance that the same thing will take place in Canada, but in qualifying. The track is still very wet at the moment, but it looks like it could dry out towards Q2 and Q3.

One driver who knows all about a drying track in Canada is Jenson Button. In 2011, he seemed to be having a dramatic race in the rain, until the track started drying up and he was able to overtake driver after driver. He eventually won the race by overtaking Sebastian Vettel on the last lap, after the German made a mistake.

No panic in the cockpit

At Sky Sports the Brit looks ahead to qualifying and explains what not to focus on as a driver. "Not tensing up, that is the big thing. I think you need to be relaxed to be one with the car." Looking at Fernando Alonso' s fastest lap in VT3, Button recognizes Alonso's calmness.

"He knows what the car can do in these conditions, and he knows it can be competitive. But then again, you need to get a lap in, because there could be a yellow or red flag near the end of the session." With changing conditions, it is important to set a time at the right time and that will be the main focus.
