World champion Jenson Button drove a McLaren for the first time last week, but like all new car owners, the Briton spent a lot of time adjusting his seat.
Button, who will drive alongside 2008 champion Lewis Hamilton in the 2010 season which gets underway in Bahrain on March 14, was determined to improve his sitting position in the car before getting out on to the track during testing in Valencia, Spain.
"It was a long day. We finished up at about 1am trying to get the seat right in the car," said Button, "because you obviously have it made in the mock-up, but it is always different when you get in the car and when you get out on the circuit it is always a bit different to what you expected.
"So we have been doing a lot of work to make me comfortable in the car, initially it wasn't quite where I wanted it to be, I was sitting quite high in the car.
"In a way it would have been nice to get some more testing done, set-up work, but this test was always to get used to the environment inside the cockpit, get used to working with the team and to run through all the checks that you always do at the first test.
"We have had to change a lot within the car, but I fit well now which is good. I feel comfortable and have a good height in the car and that is always important for
your confidence.
"This is the wrong place for us to be thinking about who is quick and who isn't.
"I'm guessing everyone is going to be having updates for the first race anyway and with the difference in fuel loads, you could be running 10 kilos or 160 kilos, so there is a massive difference and it is difficult to read into it."
