"At the Mclaren Technology Centre last week, Fernando met with his engineers and drove the simulator, to bring him up to date with the latest developments on the MP4-30 chassis and power unit. As part of that process he spent time with senior engineers, discussing the accident and reviewing the comprehensive data and analysis, all of which has been shared with the FIA.
While there was nothing evident in the extensive car telemetry data, nor anything abnormal in the subsequent reconstructions and laboratory tests, Fernando recalls a sense of ‘heavy’ steering prior to the accident. Consequently, the team has fitted an additional sensor to the car, to increase our data capture.

Sentimentul meu este că, oricât ar încerca McLaren şi Fernando să nu transpară, aici nu este vorba de o echipă, ci de două tabere. Poate că spaniolul şi-a dat seama de greşeala de a fi semnat atât de devreme cu McLaren Honda şi a căutat o soluţie de a scăpa de contract chiar cu preţul unui an de absenţă, poate chiar o fi avut cine ştie ce şoc electric la acel incident din teste... Speculaţii, evident, dar poate că peste suficient de mult timp vom afla şi noi adevărata poveste din spatele a ceea ce ni se prezintă momentan.
