McLaren will let both Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton fight for the drivers' title.

McLaren boss Martin Whitmarsh has said that both Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton will continue to fight for the Formula 1 drivers' title.

Hamilton is second in the current standings, 37 points behind Ferrari's Fernando Alonso.

Meanwhile, Button is sixth, 78 points off the pace.

Whitmarsh told BBC Sport: "At the moment, the dynamics are right within the team and it will be some time before we change our approach."

Button said: "I'm out to race. I think Lewis doesn't need my help.

"As always, I go out to win. I'm not going to go out and pedal round and sit behind my teammate."

The F1 season continues next weekend with the Singapore Grand Prix.
