It would be great if the update package can put Mclaren in the mix for the last podium step in their last race with Mercedes engines, I think a podium In Abu Dhabi would be an nice way to end what was a very good and successful partnership.

He will break down the team in the end, like he did in 2007. Yes he is the best on the grid, and I may be wrong, but I don't trust him. It would be a better option Hamilton or Vettel.

Why he would do that, he wants the WDC, that is nonsense.

Alonso is incredibly talented, very very hungry & will be a huge asset to any team. He's still a little arrogant at times but he's matured immensely since 2007, if the 30 runs well I have no doubt he can make best use of it and I guess that's what's best for McLaren in the long term

That said I'm still not that comfortable having him back after his total disregard for the team last time, but I guess I will quickly forget that when he's standing on top of the podium
