Ron's Wife (Ron happier)

After watching F1 for many years, I saw Ron's wife (for the first time) standing by his side and she is smokin! I thought he was married to his MP4's! Every interview I have seen with Ron so far this year he is smiling, seems happy to give an interview etc.

Remember the days while watching a race it seemed there were more shots of Mika's wife in the Mac garage than the race itself?

Bottom line, Ron looks more happy and relaxed than I have seen him in a long long time (since the beginning on the season).

Ron does seem happier yes.

I suspect this is because he is meeting some success this season and has made all the right calls. And also time is running out, so maybe he wants to enjoy it more.

Ron did smile in past seasons though!

She is a beautiful woman, and so is their daughter.

Yeah, Ron seemed to be relaxed... maybe I'm wrong but he looks like when he had Senna in his team. Maybe, maybe is being rewarded for his support in LH career ?

Yes she is...Ron was not on the pit wall today either was he? He looks and sounds really happy these days..He has two very fine drivers, he is being reward as Bononi says but I think for all his hard work that he has put in over the years..God bless him! Go McLaren, Fernando and Lewis..

I think it is just a relief that Mclaren are competitive again. A few fresh faces always tends to have a re-invigorating effect. It has not just been the drivers but with Newey gone they do have some new personal in the back room staff.

What Ron's got right, apart from signing up the current WC, was to have sponsored a very young winning kart racer 12 years ago, and built himself a future WC!
He's made the rest of the team bosses look like schmucks! (Except Flavio who invested in karters, albeit senior ones, for several years)

Lisa goes to lots of races, nothing new at all. His daughter and sons sometimes attend, but not as often

She was an ex Miss America, or something like that. Very nice lady

I did also notice Jean Todt's wife in the pits. He's older than me, she obviously fell for his film star looks !

I've actually been in her company several times. I think one time I talked to her for about 2 hours straight. She is a very nice woman with a phony british accent. She tries to cover up her american accent but it still slips though often. Ron is probably pretty lucky to have her.

deeks6 User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
Perhaps it has more to do with having two fast drivers who don't break the cars or run into people ... gosh, that reliability problem seems to have gone away and, heck, that feedback seems to have improved dramatically. Put a smile on anyone's face, I reckon.

Oh, and the missus ain't too shabby either!

Is his daughter the other woman who you could see in the pit garage when they did a replay of the McLaren reaction after the first-corner incident?
