The “only thing” that has survived the sweeping change at McLaren in recent years is “the name”.
That is the claim of the once-great British team’s former long-time test and reserve driver Pedro de la Rosa.
He told AS newspaper: “I don’t know the current McLaren very much.
“There are still fantastic people and I still have friends, but 80pc of the people with whom I had the privilege of working at McLaren are now at Mercedes or Red Bull or Ferrari,” said the Spaniard.
