FORMULA ONE: World championship leader Jenson Button says he won’t take his foot off the gas in the pursuit of a first world title.

The Brawn GP driver leads the standings by 26 points from team-mate Rubens Barrichello after winning six of the opening seven races.

But the Brit warned: “You can’t take anything for granted. You’ve got to keep pushing. So although I’ve a 26-point lead, which is just out of this world, I’m still not going to lift off.”
