The Balancing Act: Interview with Martin Whitmarsh
McLaren have lots of reasons to be happy about 2007 so far, but Ferrari still go into Monaco clearly ahead on the 'win' ledger. McLaren F1 CEO Martin Whitmarsh talks to Adam Cooper about juggling two very different drivers and a range of varying strategy scenarios in the quest to square things up
Bearing in mind the team's lack of hard results last year, 2007 has been a pretty good season thus far for McLaren, with seven podium finishes from eight starts. After his sensational run, Lewis Hamilton leads the world championship, and McLaren are also ahead in the constructors' version.
But the fact remains that Ferrari are ahead by three victories to one, and it's anybody's guess how the season will unfold.
