bad luck is one thing, stupid errors are another thing and folks have more than a right to be annoyed by them.

Maybe I should change the question to 'Should Whitmarsh resign for hiring Sam Michael', or 'Did Sam start the fire' !!! Jokes aside, I really hope that Mclaren get their act together because this season is becoming an embarrassment. Also hope the Williams folks hurt in the fire are fully recovered or recovering well.

I share your pain CV but there is no quick fix. Jens is right that McLaren haven't delivered to their potential over the last decade or more. They are the best team in the world and yet seem to fall at the final hurdle most of the time.

There are some excuses like the FIA 'attitude' to Ferrari and bias against Ron but I think those times are over now and we have a level(ish) playing field.

We have a good car this year. t may not be the outright quickest but it's good enough, with the right team decisions and taking into account the 2 Drivers we have, to win both titles. I will be McLaren at the end of the season whatever happens but you get the feeling that this year really is a Golden opportunity.

Well Mclaren are still doing their best to loose both championships. Not giving Hamilton the hurry up call and allowing Vettel to overtake was unforgivable. And the launch control issue seems to have surfaced again. I still maintain the management needs a good looking at.!!

I am now hoping for better team and car performance in Canada.
