Where To Now For McLaren-Honda
That was a very interesting interview with Ron Dennis on the Beeb. Notably lacking Ronspeak, he nicely explained the difficulties for an engine manufacturer if you don't get it right first time. He didn't mention that he has any solution though.
I think we can now clearly see that the second Alonso-McLaren divorce is imminent. That may be why Ron is keen to keep JB. Whether JB will be so keen is another matter, but he's an affable guy and due a not insubstantial payrise, so I think Jenson will stay. I don't see what Alonso will do though, if he leaves McLaren. There aren't any worthwhile F1 seats open for 2016, and I can't see him following the Webber-route into sportscars. Perhaps he'll just have turn professional as a teddy-thrower.
