And this weekend's British contest is given an extra bitter-sweet edge for home drivers and their fans because it may be the last to be hosted by Silverstone before the race is switched to Donington next year.<br /><br />Button said: "The British GP is always an amazing weekend and I can't wait to race at Silverstone in front of our home fansu00a0 To be leading the championship going into my home GP is something that I've never experienced and it puts a smile on my face every time I think about it."<br /><br />This year's British race will be Button's 10th tilt for home glory after nine without even a podium position. If he wins, he will join seven-times champion German Michael Schumacher in the record books as winner of seven of the eight season-opening races.<br /><br />"I've raced at Silverstone from some tough positions, but the fans have always been so supportive and I'd love to give them a performance they can enjoy this weekend. We took a good step forward with the balance of our car in Turkey, but know that our closest competitors are going to be good in the high-speed corners. <br /><br />"If we come away with a good result, I'll be happy. It's strange to think that this might be our last race at Silverstone. I just can't imagine that. So we'll be going all-out to put on a fantastic show."
