This season maybe, but rumour is that Mercedes are investing massively in the team with the aim of having the quickest car on the grid next year. Plus they have a master tactician in Brawn. On top of that we have no idea what engine McLaren will be using next year.
to be fair, isnt that what all the teams want?
I hope your right though, im a Hamilton fanboy, i want him to win the title again. Interesting point in the McLaren engine though, the Merc engine has always been one of the best, so its got alot to live upto.
As far as money is concerned, I don't know what business you're in, but if you were offered double your salary to work for one of your competitors would you not do it?
With my wages, yeah damn right id change.
But if i was earning millions already and had the option of
A- being offered slightly less, but ultimately still millions to stay at one of the top 3 teams in F1 with the best chance of winning the title(IMO of course)
or
B- Being offered more money but ultimately its still millions but being at a team that have not been at the top of their game in the last few seasons, but are promising to deliver the title because they are 'investing'
I'd go with option A every time. I mean whats an extra million or two, when your already earning multimillion sums of money, and get gifted cars, clothes, holidays etc etc.
Shame, it was great to have a British team with British drivers and bosses etc. Hope it works for him though.
Any news on the other drivers?
