Well, I'm not too sure what to think about that, because the guy is a troll. He pollutes the McLaren see twitter page.

Goran has been on my ignore list for ages, but I might take him off as his posts are so funny.
Finally, everyone knows that Red Bull is a joke and Max Verstappen is overrated.

Having a fast car on straights is good though they Will suffer a lot on tracks like Monaco. Anyway, the base is good and now they must find gains in downforce if they want to have a more balanced car.

Monaco comes after Barcelona, so hopefully they'll sort things out.

Been told the MGU-K issue was an issue with the actual control electronics rather than an inherent fault with the unit, not expecting any more issues with it as they've put some mitigations in place now now they think they've pinpointed it.

Quality issue or heat? Wonder if Mclaren are going to work with Renault on the control unit like they did with Honda?

Don't know but it sounds like the tub came back to the factory instead of going straight out to Bahrain.
