The 34-year-old Briton, who was world champion in 2009, has been unable to confirm any plans for the future while McLaren delay their own decisions on the team's drive line-up for 2015.
"I enjoyed the race and had a great battle with Kimi (Raikkonen)," said Button. (Also Read: Massa Says Third Place in Brazil Feels Like Victory)

"You always want more, to challenge for that podium and we felt that we were sort of playing with the Williams at one point, but it wasn't the case."
Amid rumours that he is set to be replaced by two-time champion Fernando Alonso of Ferrari, Button said he did not know what McLaren's plans were.
Asked what his future held, he said: "Not ready to stop racing."
