AT last some good news for McLaren Honda. The team has a new sponsor.
Chandon (of Moet & Chandon champers fame) has signed a long-term deal with the British Formula One outfit.
The press release accompanying this new partnership takes some beating.
Explaining the deal it says: "No one knows how to embrace the times - and cutting-edge technology - like McLaren and Chandon! Both incorporate their conquering spirit and impeccable innovation: McLaren with its unparalleled racing cars, and Chandon in its winemaking savoir-faire and global search for perfection in crafting its wines.
"There is always a reason to celebrate, enjoy and unwind, whether at the end of a challenging race, or the end of a good day! Chandon is the perfect sparkling toast for the moments that are made possible when you remain open to life and the beautiful opportunities it has in store."
After a dismal season which has seen Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso skulking around at the back of the field one cannot help but think that something needs to put a spark in the team's performance.
Here's to 2016!
