The bold reset helping McLaren reverse its fortunes
McLaren's performance was such in the second half of last year that it ended the 2018 Formula 1 season with the second-slowest car. What went unnoticed, though, was a shift in engineering culture that has paid off big time this year
After the frustrations of its Honda years, and the turmoil of last year, McLaren has emerged from the shadows as one of the surprises of the 2019 Formula 1 season.
It is currently sitting pretty as the 'best of the rest' outfit behind the big three. It has banished much of the negativity that surrounded it over recent years and now has an aura of a team that is going places. It even seems to be having a laugh and enjoying itself along the way.
