Jenson Button says McLaren CEO Ron Dennis convinced him to take a year-long sabbatical from Formula One in 2017 rather than a fully-fledged retirement from the sport.McLaren announced in Monza that Button would be taking a year off from racing next season to work with the team behind the scenes in an ambassador role, while promoting Stoffel Vandoorne into a race seat alongside Fernando Alonso. Buttons deal means he can return to a drive for 2018 if McLaren opts to drop either Vandoorne or Alonso.When asked if he had any plans to race outside of F1 during his year out, the 2009 world champion replied: No because my goal isnt to race next year, my aim is not to be racing again but in six months I might want to go racing again.He added: The idea of speaking to Ron in Spa was to retire, and he changed my mind to stay rather than what it said on the front of F1 Racing [magazine]. The reason why Im not racing is because Ron said I should take a year out, it was the other way round. So its a shame but there you go.The Briton has competed in every grand prix since the turn of the century, recording 15 wins and 50 podiums, but has not claimed a victory since the 2012 Brazilian Grand Prix following McLarens struggles in recent seasons, particularly since it returned to Honda power in 2015. Button believes that 2011 -- in which he took three wins and finished runner-up to Sebastian Vettel in the championship -- was his best year at the Woking-based team.I think so, I mean I think Ive been pretty unlucky this year. Ive enjoyed this year and felt that I did a good job, but its amazing how luck doesnt go your way for quite a few races in this season. But 2011 was a fun year because the cars were awesome.With the blown diffuser, we all loved it because there was so much down force but that suits me more than rolling around with low grip. So [Mexico] probably wont be one of the better circuits for my driving style but well see. Markus Hannikainen Jersey .S.

Trainer Desleigh Forster does not believe Queensland officials should fall into the trap of handicapping stakes races to attract southern horses.Forster has Too Good To Refuse, who will carry the minimum 54kg, in the $200,000 Group Three George Moore Stakes at Eagle Farm on Saturday.Five NSW=trained horses were in the original nominations with three among the acceptances.Forster said the way the race had been handicapped favoured the southern horses.The race was scaled down 4.5 kilograms which suited the higher weighted horses rather than my bloke. They seem to do it all the time to attract the southern horses, Forster said.I know I can be accused of whingeing but they dont do us any favours when we go south. It is good to take on the southern horses and we need them here.But I was willing for my horse to have 55kg on Saturday if the visitors also had more but the way they scaled the race down stopped that.Forster believes Too Good To Refuse has trained on since his storming win in the Listed Keith Noud Quality at Eagle Farm two weeks ago.He worked well on Tuesday morning and he is bright within himself, she said.ddddddddddddYou know what you will get with him. He will be out the back early doing his own thing and then running on.Forster said provided things went well, Too Good To Refuse would push on into the summer with a wild card to the Magic Millions Cup a possible mission.Then we will look to a race like the Stradbroke Handicap in the winter, she said.Forster said Too Good To Refuse would have to continue to climb in the ratings to be a certainty of getting a start in races like the Stradbroke.Meanwhile, trainer Tony Gollan is set to send Group-winning gelding Didntcostalot to Sydney for the Starlight Stakes on Saturday.It looks a better race for him at the 1100 metres, Gollan said.Instead we will rely on Most Important who has been racing very well. He has been racing more truly this campaign since he was gelded.Stablemate Il Riccio will also miss Saturdays Brisbane meeting and probably run at Ipswich next week.
