Jenson Button has conceded that introducing the head protection device next season is too early.
The device, formerly known as the Halo, has only has a handful of test laps this season and Button believes that the device needs more testing before it is introduced.
"We all sat down for about 45mins in Budapest discussing the Halo with the FIA and the positives – there didn't seem to be any negatives at that time," Button told Crash.net. "But I guess there hasn't been enough mileage with it, there hasn't been any driving in anger with the Halo system, so I think next year is very early to put it on the car."
"It's a good idea and we would like it sooner than rather than later, but it obviously needs to be tested correctly and gone through the correct process," he added. "I also feel that the decision is made on the right grounds in terms of safety rather than anything else."
