After a fantastic weekend in Austria, Jenson Button showed the paddock that he is still worthy of a seat in Formula One.
However, with highly-rated McLaren prospect Stoffel Vandoorne linked with a race seat for next year, could his days at the team be numbered?

Along with speculation that Vandoorne could be promoted, Button has also been linked with Williams for a 2017 seat.
"Of course he is going to be an attractive proposition if he is available", stated the team's deputy Claire Williams.
Button made his Grand Prix début for the the team 16 years ago. He is the most experienced driver on the grid and is not far away from Rubens Barichello's record of 326 Grand Prix entries.
When asked about the Williams seat, he said: "I don't know what l am doing next year. I want to be enjoying myself again and be in a position whether I can fight for good results, whether it's a building year, a podium year or a winning year. That's what I need."
Retirement could also be another option for Button, along with a move into rallycross, following in his father's footsteps.

I would prefer that JB replaces Joylon Palmer. And he has worked together with KMAG before.
