It starts coming on when the car warms up, but a slight lift of the handbrake and return to fully down position and it goes off for a bit. It also goes off with a bit of downward pressure on the handbrake. The pads look fine, they have only done 1500 road miles since trackday pads were put in. Any ideas?

Check brake fluid - that's why the light usually come on.

Yep. Mine did that... put the smallest drop of brake fluid in and it hasn't done it since.

Just topped up and it's still at it, although slightly less.
