Buttons signs up for The Race of Champions
Payback time for Schumacher and Vettel...
Jenson Button has signed up to fight for his national honour this December,
by confirming he will compete at Wembley Stadium when The Race of Champions
returns to the UK for a second successive year on Sunday 14 December.
小巴將會在今年十二月十四日舉辦的The Race of Champions(ROC)中出賽。
In doing so he has set up the first national grudge match of the event, as
Britain tries to wrestle the ROC Nations Cup from its old sporting rivals and
reigning champions, Germany.
小巴也爲今年參賽設下目標：打倒衛冕冠軍德國隊。
Last year Team England – made up of Button plus three-time World Touring Car
Champion Andy Priaulx – got through to the semi-finals of the ROC Nations
Cup before being knocked out by Germany's Michael Schumacher and Sebastian
Vettel, who went on to win.
去年，由小巴跟三屆WTCC冠軍Andy Priaulx搭檔組成的英格蘭隊，
在準決賽中落敗，打倒他們的是由舒馬克和Vettel組成的德國隊，也就是後來的冠軍。
This year, instead of an English and Scottish squad, Team Autosport Great
Britain will be the first of two British teams, leaving more options for
potential drivers to enter.
今年，英格蘭蘇格蘭不再單獨出賽，取而代之的是大英帝國隊。
這個改變讓車手人選增加更多可能性。
"I never thought I'd be able to say I'd compete for my country against
Germany at Wembley, but it was great to do that last year, and the crowd was
awesome," said the Honda Racing F1 Team driver.
小巴：
"我從來沒想過我可以為了我的國家，與德國競爭。
不過去年的經驗是很愉快的，觀眾們支持非常棒。"
"As soon as I heard Schumacher and Vettel had signed up for Germany again, I
knew I had to come back to take them on."
小巴：
"當我聽到舒馬克跟Vettel要再次出賽的同時，
我就決定今年要再度參賽，而且該是打敗他們的時候了。"
"Last year was the first time I'd done The Race of Champions and, although
it's all a bit of fun and we say it doesn't matter who wins, I was gutted
that we lost out to the German team," Button added. "It's the one chance of
the year where we all get to compete against each other in identical cars,
and I'm determined to help get Britain through to the final this time!"
小巴：
"去年是我第一次參加ROC。
雖然整個過程很好玩，我們也說勝敗並不重要，
不過我們被德國隊打敗後，我還是有點小不爽。
這是今年用相同賽車與對方競爭的唯一機會，所以我當然要把握機會參賽。
我也非常渴望幫助英國隊一路殺進決賽。"
Schumacher and Vettel were the first drivers to be confirmed for The Race of
Champions 2008, which features racing drivers from many different disciplines
competing against each other, head-to-head, on a parallel circuit constructed
inside Wembley stadium.
ROC將會在英國Wembley stadium舉辦，
賽事邀請了各種不同類型賽車的頂尖車手參加。
舒馬克跟Vettel則是今年第一組確認出賽的隊伍。
