Catalunya - McLaren are determined to win the race in Spain who became the fifth round on May 21 to 22 later. To fulfill his ambitions, the McLaren technical director Tim Goss, Thursday (18/05/2011), said it has upgraded 10 to 12 parts on the MP4-26 which dibesut by a second driver, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button.
"We never stop improving the ability of a car in Spain and to have a package of improvements is between 10 to 12. There are some who are on the outside, also there that can not be given out," said Goss.
This update, besides wanting to win races and championships won, also closed the gap with Red Bull Racing (RB7), which increasingly dominate. Although in Turkey managed to overcome a small problem, "We always try to accelerate improvements to the circuit as quickly as possible," said Goss.
Button himself knows that his team has made improvements to the MP4-26, including when appearing in Spain later. "We can not stand in place and should move forward. The team never gave up, I know and realize that if they bring some development to Barcelona, Spain," said Button told AP news agency.
Goss saw the race in Spain later will surprise many people because it is not an entertaining race. The surface of a fast tire wear will play a major role for the rider to be able to guard it. Then, DRS will help turn the competition because of the famous Barcelona circuit is very difficult to overtake.
