McLaren chose not to fit Mercedes' latest power unit upgrade at the British Grand Prix, even as other customer teams took it. "You've got to cycle through your engines, and we've got life left on our current engines, so we need to wait till we do an engine change," CEO Zak Brown explained. He said Williams received the upgrade because of Carlos Sainz's engine issue, and that McLaren would want the new unit as soon as possible, hopefully by the next race. Brown played down any frustration and insisted McLaren have plenty more upgrades in the pipeline, held back until the parts reach the level the team wants. πΈπ° via Planet F1 #F1 #McLaren #ZakBrown #BritishGP
