No title talk, says Button

Jenson Button has denied that the world championship is 'his to lose' after his stunning start to the 2009 season.
No driver has ever lost the title having won five of the opening six rounds, but Button said it was far too early to start thinking that the championship was in the bag."I don't know how you can say that after six races," he said."You are sort of putting a bit of negative energy in there and saying it is mine to lose."I wouldn't put it like that."I am 16 points in the lead and I have more of an advantage than others to win the championship, but it is all to play for."I am doing the best I can and at the moment that is good enough."
He said he was enjoying every moment of his ultra-successful year rather than letting thoughts of the championship and what other drivers had achieved after such strong starts to seasons fill his head."Facts obviously don't excite me too much, especially after the last couple of years that I've had, but winning does and winning here is very special," said Button."I'm not thinking about the last few races, it's this race I'm feeling at the moment.
"If you stop asking me the same questions over and over again about winning the world championship I might be able to concentrate on the next race."I'm taking it as it comes. Nothing's changed."I don't know what would change if I did think about the world championship, to be fair."But I'm enjoying myself, as you can imagine and I'm just looking forward to the next weekend in Turkey."
