+Joe Rock I think you might find it does. The last time McLaren was in a low it took time. But then it came back fighting. F1 needs to have teams with equal budgets to be fair to be honest.
DirtyDiesel100 I think McLaren is not low on budget, but they can't seem to get it together. I am afraid after a while, they'll become caterham or maurrusia - teetering on the brink of insolvency.
+Joe Rock there would have been a time when people said that about Ferrari and Mercedes! But they find the rite people it all comes together. If Mercedes can get it together who say McLaren can't. I'm sorry I've been watching formula 1 my whole life and I have seen these teams have highs and lows. This is including McLaren. If there business was full of negative people like yourself then it would go down the pan at a faster rate!
Suzy Perry ruined this interview, Ron answered her question clearly and stated that JB was staying for next season but she still continued to fish for something that was not there. Cringe worthy.
Mercedes had a headstart on working about the design of turbo hybrid took Ferrari 3-4 Years to get close. But really makes you wonder if Honda made their debut with RB instead of McLaren.
@@footystar1947 I still stand by my words, he was the ultimate Alonso fanboy and that was very costly for McLaren. Also the big financial problems earlier this year while McLaren has gone Indycar is due to big mistakes by him. The F1 team led by Seidl/Key is on the up, but I don't credit Brown for that.
I have a question for Ferrari. It's seems warm up laps are a big concern on warming up the tires of an F1 car therefor better grip and less wheel spin. Do you think it's worth a test on redesigning the exhaust system so that the heat of the exhaust is on the back tires ensuring heat and extreme grip on the tires all the time. Therefor no tire warmers needed. Please come back to me on this? This might be far ahead of time.
Ron always tells it like it is. I knew jenson was stalling because of the money issie. I don't know why he didn't just come out and say it rather than trying to garner public sympathy like Ron ever let's that persuade him in decision making.
When you think about it that Honda owns Suzuka, and is back in Formula 1 with McLaren, that they can't strap THEIR engine onto any sort of car and run it around THEIR track as THEY please, because of testing rules and limitations, it's pretty fuckin stupid if you ask me. Loved how Ron Dennis spoke of how they would test the MP4/4 3 days a week, every week, with a backup car.
Banning in Season testing to save money and then demand the teams to develop or get very expensive engines was just another ridiculously stupid move by the "F1 Management"... I cant take it anymore how they ruin this sport I used to love.
McHonda can model their 2016 season after RB who after their 1st year with the Hybrid actually took steps back or can they can be like Ferrari who after their 1st year with the Hybrid were consistently challenging for podiums.
This may seem a stupid question. Why don't Honda dismantle a Mercedes engine from last year and find out how they got it wrong!!!... Just a thought!!!!!!!!!! :-) Good news for Jenson Button.. Pay increase as well, not bad!!!
+David Camel I dont think Mercedes let their old engine lie around the factory for other engines manufacturer to study. And also honda been testing all season long, still nothing has change yet.
+Themayseffect ..Thank you, did not know that! I thought manufactures could keep their car and engine. How come these vintage cars are driven by current drivers, let say Senna's old car from the past?..... :-)
F1 these days are a joke, there is no innovations everything is limited even the wind tunnel no one can use it, this is absurd F1 teams really getting smaller day by day this is not F1 this is a charade,, New teams come and go coz the cost is high no one can survive look at Lotus and before Lotus Caterham. I just wanna watch a great race I don't wanna fall a sleep while watching the race coz the race is boring,, this year one race was very awesome the Hungarian GP. Since 2011 till this season F1 is getting very slower & very boring .
I miss ron... He's a politician but what a character! Listening to him talk just sooths my brain...
I agree with DC, that was one of the clearest interviews I have seen with Ron Dennis.
Thanks very much for this FSB.
I know Ron will get the job done. He is a man who has made many world championships happen. And he know how to get the right people in to do the job.
+DirtyDiesel100 it seems that history doesn't matter.
+Joe Rock I think you might find it does. The last time McLaren was in a low it took time. But then it came back fighting. F1 needs to have teams with equal budgets to be fair to be honest.

wth, ron dennis became a PR genius overnight
Suzy Perry ruined this interview, Ron answered her question clearly and stated that JB was staying for next season but she still continued to fish for something that was not there. Cringe worthy.
F1 need this guy back.
If only they had the 2019-2021 Honda PU.....
Mercedes had a headstart on working about the design of turbo hybrid took Ferrari 3-4 Years to get close.
But really makes you wonder if Honda made their debut with RB instead of McLaren.
Thank you for uploading this. It's almost shocking to hear someone like Ron Dennis actually tell it like it is. I hope the right people are listening.
In 2018, when I'm watching this, the opening 4 minutes are very poignant.
It shows how Zak Brown let things spiral out of control with his style at the team...
@@patrickschellen737Wow, you were wrong

Two thumbs up for BBC F1 uploads.. Can we please have more Lee McKenzie though, would be much appreciated..
she has a nice face but she's a fat cow.
+Urooz Virk suzi perry is way hotter
+goner2006 But Suzi Perry knows nothing about F1, all she does is ask Questions and talks about Lewis Hamilton constantly
+supercooled i think she's just fine
0:54 Ron is absolutely spot on. However Alonso is bigger than McLaren and they would do anything to keep him, even at the cost of them improving
Ig not
No one is bigger than McLaren
I have a question for Ferrari. It's seems warm up laps are a big concern
on warming up the tires of an F1 car therefor better grip and less wheel
spin. Do you think it's worth a test on redesigning the exhaust
system so that the heat of the exhaust
is on the back tires ensuring heat and extreme grip on the
tires all the time. Therefor no tire warmers needed. Please come back to
me on this? This might be far ahead of time.
Anyone here after theyve signed for Mercedes engines
Ech. Ron was in a good mood and perry just shat on it lmao.
Ron always tells it like it is. I knew jenson was stalling because of the money issie. I don't know why he didn't just come out and say it rather than trying to garner public sympathy like Ron ever let's that persuade him in decision making.
anyone knows why they banned in-season testing?
+setiapratamadupi saving cost
0:59 Gladly McLaren return with Mercedes this season is doing well, but Ron's word here are truly right
Alonso's comments on Honda are counterproductive McLaren wasn't a championship contender like Red Bull are hence they are very successful with Honda.
When you think about it that Honda owns Suzuka, and is back in Formula 1 with McLaren, that they can't strap THEIR engine onto any sort of car and run it around THEIR track as THEY please, because of testing rules and limitations, it's pretty fuckin stupid if you ask me.

Don't think Suzi likes Ron
Banning in Season testing to save money and then demand the teams to develop or get very expensive engines was just another ridiculously stupid move by the "F1 Management"... I cant take it anymore how they ruin this sport I used to love.
ron just addmitted without in season testing mclaren are finshed
McHonda can model their 2016 season after RB who after their 1st year with the Hybrid actually took steps back or can they can be like Ferrari who after their 1st year with the Hybrid were consistently challenging for podiums.

The problem is in the energy recovery.
+David Camel I dont think Mercedes let their old engine lie around the factory for other engines manufacturer to study. And also honda been testing all season long, still nothing has change yet.
+dojOdRiFTeR using capslock doesnt make your point better
+David Camel All the engines from Mercedes were returned to Mercedes at the end of the year.
+Themayseffect ..Thank you, did not know that! I thought manufactures could keep their car and engine. How come these vintage cars are driven by current drivers, let say Senna's old car from the past?..... :-)
What is the virus?
A crappy Honda power unit which didn’t become any good until Red Bull took a chance on it in 2019.
oh dear woman
