McLaren team principal Andrea Stella admitted Mercedes' new engine move caught his team off guard. "It surprised us a bit, because it is not something we discussed among ourselves," Stella said. "I am not at all sure whether it was even offered to us. There are definitely ongoing conversations with Mercedes about it." McLaren run Mercedes power units, so the idea that their engine partner developed something they were not looped in on is a pointed one heading into the second half of the season.
