Points in Montecarlo, from Button only, sadly do not make me happy at all. On another track may be. We need mileage, mileage and mileage to recoup the data gap and positively take advantage of this lost season as a testing platform. The only way I am pretty sure to begin to hope in better results next year.
Good thing you aren't running the team then. Honestly you are starting to sound like some of those guys from over at the autosport forum. It is like you suddenly expect McLaren-Honda to jump from where they are to the top of the grid in the space of two weeks. When that obviously doesn't happen then you post a moan about how the team is failing etc. these things don't happen overnight. It has been pretty much stated by everybody in the paddock that a teams performance doesn't just change completely overnight. Cars these days are far to refined for that. That is why having B spec cars is almost unheard of now. The closest thing I can remember to a B spec car is when lotus introduced a shorter wheelbase chassis a few seasons ago, which oddly enough got binned after a few races if I remember correctly. Now back to my point.
McLaren-Honda have been making consistent progress every race and have been moving forward. If that isn't good enough for you then I suggest you go find another team to support. This is supposed to be a technical forum, not a whine thread like the other one. Do us a favour and keep as much emotion out of your posts as possible if you can't control it.
