McLaren Honda will dominate Formula One

I was speaking to a McLaren employee the other week (motor cars not racing team, but they're all in the same building). They said initially the power unit was running at a compromised state, and at this speed, the aero looked really good and hence McLaren's expectation that they'll be fighting for podiums once the power unit issues were ironed out. Once they cranked up the power unit, more and more flaws were found with the aero package to a point where it's now a multi-season task to get McLaren to the front.
