Right, I'm going to have to transfer this poll here, because it's turning into quite a good topic of discussion. It's time to lay down your thoughts on who might be the new headline technical signing for McLaren!

[Jabberwocky]

Sky F1 seems to think it will be Pat Fry

For some reason when I flicked through the names I thought the fourth option said Bob Geldof don't know why.
I'll go with Bob Geldof

[Ichabod]

I vote Adrian Newey
Hence his absence from the Korean GP

They read this forum when it was unanimously agreed that I would be a fantastic Martin Witmarsh replacement; can't say anything yet but you know......

Just sayin'

[Jabberwocky]

Fred Dibnah has been a bit quiet of late, maybe it is him. Especially with the new steam powered power units coming next year.

I miss Fred Dibnah, my old man loved him, he would be great tech addition to Mclaren if he was still around. Would do a better job of running the team than the current muppet

[Jabberwocky]

He was an amazing man

True

Anyway, it's currently 50/50 between Brawn and Fry in the poll. Any more thoughts?

[acosmichippo]

Why are you guys thinking Brawn or Fry? I haven't been able to keep up on gossip this year.

More importantly, what does Eddie Jordan think?

[Hammer278]

I don't get why Brawn is in this mix. Didn't he leave Ferrari in a huff since he was eyeing at team boss position and not be in a position to say 'yes sir no sir 3 bags full sir' anymore? Even at Merc now he's talking about 'doing this for a few more years before I'm off fishing'

Why would he go back to a techie position at McLaren? Unless he's replacing Whitmarsh? So Whitmarsh is basically announcing his own demise? Lol

Maybe there are bubbles involved?
And a couple of hiccups?

[racechick]

Both brawn and. Honda have denied it. But brawn less convincingly I think? Honda said they'd heard nothing of these rumours and had not spoken to B fawn. bran said he would not make Amy decision quickly, may even take a sabbatical.

May even take a sabbatical that bit worries me. If he's considering that, all doesn't sound well.

I thought he wanted to return home to te UK?

[racechick]

Well Merc is home. It's Brackley.
