Ron Dennis has banned McLaren's 2007 driver lineup from drinking alcohol.

Despite Ferrari-bound Kimi Raikkonen's supposed alcoholic indiscretions during his tenure in 2002-2006, the Woking based team's chairman suggested that the only sips taken by Lewis Hamilton or world champion Fernando Alonso this year should be champagne on the podium.

After his drivers trained with Olympic athletes in Finland, Dennis told the Mirror: "We don't see why drivers need to have even one drink in the course of a season."

The irony of Dennis' stance, however, is that whiskey sponsor Johnnie Walker's McLaren-associated slogan for this year is: "Be a champion. Drink responsibly."

Most professional sporting outfits have the same ruling in this day and age. dont know whats so nazi about it?

[darwin dali]

Most? I think not!

[bud]

Yes MOST

[darwin dali]

That's BS and you know it.

[bud]

No its not! FFS all professional sporting outfits have behavioral standards. and the drinking of alcohol is a major issue.
while the clubs/teams franchises want a zero policy it doesnt stop the players from having a few during the course of a season. same can be said for Lewis or Fernando. if they want a drink they will have one its not in their contract that they cant!

McLaren is an profession corperate company, for them image is everything(hence the sexy cars). This may have something to do with bahrain buying 30% of the mclaren group.

[bud]

If the Bahrain ownership had anything to do with it they would want JW sponsorship gone. 30% ownership isnt enough power for that!

this was one quote from a magazine anyway its not an official statement.

I can't believe this!

In the last few years Kimi consumed more alcohol than George Best did in a life time!

I think this is harsh on the 2 new drivers... not that I care to be honest.
