David Coulthard on ‘McLaren favoring Lando’ talks:
“It's a tricky one, isn't it? And of course, the immediate response from anyone at McLaren would be ‘that's not the case.’ And that's absolutely fine. I get that. And they may genuinely - not just want to close the conversation down - but they may genuinely believe that. But that’s it.
You know, I only have one son, but if you've got two kids, you must kind of be slightly closer to one than the other. You've got to be because we're all different. You know, I'm the middle of three and my brother's very different to me and my sister who's no longer with us sadly, but she had a different personality as well.
So, I think that the fact that Lando has - he's doing his 150th Grand Prix with the team as we speak here in Vegas. He knows the team more and if relationships didn't build over time and didn't matter then we wouldn't have the word relationship. It is what it is. So I believe that they're giving equal opportunity in terms of machinery. I truly believe in McLaren and I think they've all credit to Zak and Andrea Stella and all of the team and guys that I work with like Rob Marshall and people that are there and Peter Prodromou and you know, they've built this winning culture and it's beautiful to observe."
