Exclude Brawn/Schumacher and Ferrari have basically been Whitmarsh’s McLaren for 40 years.

If you ignore the cheaty Schumacher years and Raikkonen only winning because McLaren had two good drivers who shared wins too well, Ferrari haven't won a WDC since 1979. Makes you think.

It's 1-1. Honda pulled out after 1992 because McLaren's chassis concepts in '91 and '92 were flawed.

Like, McLaren's solution to the FW14/B was just to make the rear wing bigger, when Newey went in the opposite direction.

Not real sure Honda should be judging anyone on flawed chassis concepts.

At that point in time they could. Despite their resources the MP4/6 and MP4/7 did not have Traction Control, ABS, or Active suspension.

Honda, after killing a driver with a magnesium car: “We just don’t trust your chassis concepts.”

I have thought about and now I realize the truth.

Martin Whitmarsh was good. Ron Dennis was bad.

Zak Brown is somewhere in the middle.

McLaren are hosed. RIP wicka's account.

Whitmarsh was fine, the flaw was expecting him to singlehandedly run the entire organization, which virtually no one is capable of doing anymore. Three people at McLaren now share Whitmarsh’s responsibilities.

This interview with Jon Neale (one of those three) is super good: https://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2018/01/10/repairing-damage-jonathan-neale-mclarens-future-honda/

This would end with him crafting a tyre out of dumpster scraps from a Shoprite, racing it once to prove it’s a tire, and then eating it, which I 100% approve of

Even if it got to Abu Dhabi next year and mathematically it were impossible for Ferrari to lose the WDC or WCC, they would find a way to lose it. Such is their mastery of incompetence.
