A couple of interesting bits:
- McLaren is in advanced talks about continuing its customer relationship with Mercedes beyond 2025.
- Andrea Stella believes that is better to be a customer of an established manufacturer than a works team of a new manufacturer. A reference to RB-Ford and Sauber-Audi, or maybe remembering the McHonda days?

At the moment, and I say this as a McLaren fan; that's just where McLaren are. No point in having the same experience they had with Honda whilst being towards the back of the midfield.
But I doubt they will win a championship without going the works route at some point

Did they ever get their new wind tunnel online? Feel like that's been in talks for ages now...

Doesn't look like it. I believe now is about the time they were aiming for, so hopefully there will be some news soon.
