2019 is just more stabilisation for McLaren until Key comes in anyway. As much as it's fun to laugh at them right now they are making the changes they need to to improve longer term

Brown is a blowhard but he also recognizes what’s wrong.

You don’t get points for recognizing you’re incapable of doing your own job. That’s not how things work.

No, but hiring someone who can do it to do it does.

Delegating things you can't do to qualified people is how good management is supposed to work

Imagine being in a Formula 1 team and having Brown as your boss instead of having Brawn as your boss. Sad.

He's the CEO. He's not in charge of the day-to-day racing operations and never has been. He's not "recognizing he's incapable," he's replacing Boullier.

If you do something about it you absolutely should get credit.

And then immediately fired of course.

At no point has Zak Brown ever directly run the F1 team, nor was he ever intended to. He is a businessman and a marketing guru. Seidl replaces de Ferran who replaced Boullier.

This is an actual positive step forward.

Now they just need to fire Zak Brown.

Zak Brown has ran and continues to run this loving team into the ground.

I hope they just make the Porsche guy Zaks actual replacement.

If you want something done right don’t loving put an American in charge. I mean America saw fit to put trump in power ffs

Depending on the organisation sometimes they just leave you there, despite your efforts to get transferred out.
