The offseason of the British team could be said that it was very strange from the beginning until the end. The presentation on the streets of Berlin has already put the original touch between the rest of teams that chose to carry out a much more traditional event. In that presentation many were very impressed by the revolution created the new seat of McLaren.
This new and revolutionary system could bring something like what we saw in 2009 with Brawn GP. At the end and the place for McLaren years that are being completely matching the design of the car or spoiling the start of the season until the new developments. And seeing the results achieved in the winter training with the participation of seems to me that the first option is virtually discarded.
The team also have realized this and since then has been working on new solutions that provide the key. Seems that the main workhorse of the Woking has become has placed on the reliability, something which has not allowed the MP4-26 shooting enough in the performed test.
If we look at the classifications with regard to the number of completed laps, McLaren is below the seventh place in terms of kilometres travelled. We must not forget also that men of Martin Whitmarsh were the last teams to begin the offseason, without even participating in the test in Valencia.
But if there is something of what their two regular drivers, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, is the lack of aerodynamic supporthave complained. The MP4-26 did not finish to adjust to the new Pirelli and to make matters worse a problem of design makes that you overheating the flat bottom of the new car. These deformations in the background makes the air flow to be fickle and that therefore the car becomes much more difficult to fly.
It is no doubt that talent inside of the Group of engineers and designers of the British team is very valid to overcome this situation, but now it remains to be seen as time are able to recover the difference that currently lead the Ferrari and Red Bull. Surely more than one even still pulling their hair seeing as Adrian Newey designed every year victors car for competition.
Our colleague and analyst full time Sergio Marcus already warned it in its last analysis to recent workouts in the circuit of Montmeloplayed. McLaren are you still watching lost in the circuit, and while Hamilton and Button have to fight with the steering wheel and upload by pianos to mark good times, Red Bull kept his good pace and without gasoline.
Obviously the delay of the start of the season, after the cancellation of the Grand Prize of Bahrain, and the return home by Christmas of Pedro de la Rosa can give you a good boost for the boys of McLaren, but I'm in the nose than the guys at the silver cars will not be easy to fight for the WINS During this season that is about to begin.
