Button expecting "real fight"

Brawn GP's Jenson Button

Brawn GP driver Jenson Button has expressed confidence that his team can carry their early form through the rest of the Formula One season.After barely making it on to the track following Honda's withdrawal from the sport, the new team shocked everyone in the first race of the year and Button leads the Drivers' Championship after winning three of the first four.The Briton is 5/4 favourite with IASbet to take the title, but the field could be further shaken up this weekend as many teams are expected to make changes for the Spanish Grand Prix."We know we have a real fight on our hands from here to maintain our lead in the championships, but I am confident we are well prepared for the challenges ahead," Button remarked.Party Bets is offering odds of 7/4 that he will pick up his fourth victory of the year - and the fifth of his career - in Barcelona.Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel, meanwhile, is priced 9/2 as the only other man to have won a Grand Prix this season.
