Hamilton excited with Button duel




Former world champion Lewis Hamilton believes he will have many more close-fought battles with McLaren team-mate and current title-holder Jenson Button before the Formula One season comes to a close. The British pair enjoyed a one-two finish at the recent Turkish Grand Prix with the 2008 victor landing his first winning podium of the campaign.

Quote from the article:
Button passed Hamilton with just eight laps remaining in Istanbul but he soon regained his lead to move into third place in the drivers' championship, four points behind Button and nine behind Red Bull's leader Mark Webber and he feels there is much still to play for.
