I wont put it past ross to pull something like that... but why would he...I think this possibility will probably boil down to how much Kimi wants in comparison with Jenson. If Kimi wants more than what Button is asking for, Ross Brawn will struggle to get Kimi in the Brawn.

How much are mclaren offering button, compared to what their offering kimi?
Who will brawn get if jenson goes?

On the other hand, Brawn are the current Champions regardless.

Ross Brawn is a very smart man, I'm sure he has some sort of plan or game hes playing here, he's got me stumped though.

Unless ross has an eye on another driver he thinks it'll be worth sacrificing button for to keep the wage bill down, but I'll be amazed if thats kimi

McLaren wrote:Lots of rumors of Button being at McLaren all afternoon yesterday.Is it to get him or to speed kimi's decision up ?.Which is why I think it's a big game. McLaren would be mad to pay £8m for Button without offering Kimi that deal first and, so far, it seems they're sticking with their offer of £5m.
Like said before I can't think why Mclaren would pay Button £8 mil and only offer Kimi £5m (+ferrari dosh).I would of thought after Kimi driving for Mclaren before, the people round there would know Kimi well enough to know what his motivation might be.
Time will tell, wouldn't like to 2nd guess anything at the moment.
Kimi has done it! The youngest ever F1 champion. A[…]
