McLaren Mercedes are too slow
Looks like Vodafone Mclaren Mercedes were not sandbagging after all. The Woking based team have admitted that they are struggling for pace and it looks like they will not be championship contenders despite the smart solutions they are coming up with like the triangular cut outs on the floor sections. According to the Mclaren engineers the problem is centered on the cooling and the air distribution towards the diffuser section. Clearly its not an engine problem as the Brawn BGP001 uses the same engine and has been on the top of the timesheets. Looks like I will have to revise or update my F1 2009 Season Preview as a result of this update!
