The BMW Williams team has decided to send its 2005 Jenson Button contract to the Contract Recognition Board in order to break the deadlock that exists at the moment. The team is believed to have made the move after British American Tobacco made a large financial offer to try to convince Button to change his mind and stay with BAR next year. The Contract Recognition Board will now have to consider the two contracts it holds and rule on which is valid.
