Some trust in Ron Dennis, the boss of McLaren, a Formula 1 legend and a true sports enthusiast, to fix his team. After Silverstone, he praises his drivers and their attitude, so much so that he does not plan on getting rid of any of them. "Jenson Button has a two-year contract with McLaren and we are not thinking about the drivers at the moment. Both are doing an incredible job," he stated on Sky Sports. Button and Alonso will continue to be partners in 2016, and the Englishman also talks about the virtues of the car: "They are doing a great job. It would be very, very easy for both of them to criticize McLaren and they haven't done it." They drive the car and they know it is extremely fast in the corners." A virtue of the car that he later explains: "Not as much as the Mercedes cars at the moment, but in many corners we do surpass most of the grid. Everyone in Formula 1 knows it, they can see the data and say where we are fast and where we are slow. But the only certainty is that we will be back." As you can see, he doesn't mention anything about the power unit.
"We have a big challenge with Honda. They are struggling on two fronts, reliability and performance. Honda has huge resources and is applying them. We are talking to them to reach an important base, and that is not pleasant for them," he complains to his Japanese partners. And Ron finishes with one of those phrases he likes and that perhaps one of those samurais whom Alonso follows so much could have written: "It has been painful so far, but we must use the pain as motivation." We will have to listen to him.
