F1 | McLaren determined to divorce Honda
The indiscretion was launched by the Daily Mail. From 2018, McLaren should return to being equipped with Mercedes engines
McLaren would be determined to interrupt the professional relationship that binds it to Honda at the end of the current season to (re)embrace the Mercedes engine supply.
A move also dictated by the Woking team's desire to retain Fernando Alonso, who in various circumstances - the last one in chronological order comes from Montreal ("If we win by September I will stay“) – expressed all his discontent towards the Japanese motor industry.
The indiscretion of a breakup which now appears certain was given by Daily Mail. Furthermore, the British tabloid provided an important detail: McLaren would have decided to break the deadlock after yet another engine failure occurred on Alonso's car a few laps before the end of the Montreal race.
“Longtime McLaren shareholder Mansour Ojjeh had long talks with Mercedes team bosses Toto Wolff and Niki Lauda in the Montreal paddock on the sidelines of the Canadian Grand Prix,” reports on Daily Mail.
