BAR-Honda driver Jenson Button has revealed that he made a 'mꦿistake' to try and re-join Williams for 2005.

Speaking to British newspaper, The Guardian, the Englishman, added that he should have discussed the matter with then BAR boss, David Richards, and that he was '👍misguided' in not doing s༒o.

"Yes, I did make soꦏme mistakes," Button stated to the 'paper, when asked about the matter.

"I don༺'t❀ know the legal side of things so I just had to listen to what people had to say.

"I thought it was the correct thing to do, but obviously it wasn't. In my reasoning for🌊 moving I don't think I made a mistake, but in not talking to David myself I was misguided."

Button's attempt to r🐼e-join Williams, the team he made his debut with in 2000, was announced in August, something that not only shocked most F1 insiders, but also BAR, who believed thaౠt had a valid contract.

Richards however refused to yield to claims there was a loophole in Jenson's deal, and𝐆 after going to the F1 Contract Recognition Board [CRB], proved he had a 🍃valid contact for 2005.

The Englishman, who had feared that Honda might leave BAR, has now been boosted by the news that Honda have purchased a 45 per 🐭cent stake in the team, a matter that will see Richards and his Prodrive management team leave the outfit in Fe♒bruary. Both factors are undoubtedly good news for Button.

"Honda having a stake in the team is the best thing✤ for BAR," he added.

"It's huge for everyone working here. It makꦺes us very excited about the coming years."

So will Button still 💝want to join Williams in 2006, if possible? - one would ima🐎gine that will depend on the form of both BAR and Williams during the coming year.
