You're not taking into consideration the amount of hot air that Alonso produces himself, and the synergistic effect the combination would have on the stability of the car. :rolleyes: ;)

7 laps for McLaren and that's it for the day, they need to change the engine. They're running out of time to get their problems sorted out.
Even if Alonso is not declared fit for the first race, he may not be missing much.
McLaren is a certified Piece of Sh!t - Well at least Honda is. Lets see if they can get it going but perhaps they should look for a new engine supplier.
Nonsense!
Sure Honda are behind the 8-ball now. But they will develop the engine as the season progresses. Expect them to be pushing Renault and Ferrari by mid season. Remember the other suppliers had a year in 2014 to hone their engines in race conditions, Honda haven't. Plus the issues don't really appear to be with the actual engine, more the control systems associated with it. If this is the case the performance that they are currently lacking is probably in there.
My guess is that it will take them some races to finish a race. And, they will be running out of Engines early on.
Lets see where can Fred bail too - Lotus????
Looks like Jense is about to get 100 laps in today, that's a huge boost for McLaren!
A decent first day with their 2015 car for Force India too, they had a bit of a slow start but are over 70 laps with it now. Although their lap times are nothing to write home about so far.
