His contract is actually with Honda not Mclaren which is a very smart move i think. With the updated chassis mated to what is looking like a very impressive Honda engine,i think we can expect to see McLaren back near the top.Quote:

I personally don't like Vettel,but in saying that i have enormous respect for his talent. He is in a very elite class of drivers,in regards to his four world championships. When you brake it down it is very impressive,
Nelson Piquet-3 titles
Jackie Stewart-3 titles
Niki Lauda-3 titles
Jack Brabham-3 titles
Alain Prost-4 titles
Sebastian Vettel-4 titles, Some very impressive drivers in that list. Also the first driver to break Nigel Mansell's record for most pole positions in a season. He is also fourth on the list for most overall F1 wins behind,Schumacher,Prost,Senna, Impressive names in that list.
And what makes his titles special is the drivers he was up against when he won all his world titles,the F1 grid was packed with talent. Alonso,Hamilton,Button,Rakkonen, All world champions. In contrast Schumacher had paper thin resistance for many years,even in his own words the ONLY driver he feared was Mika Hakkinen. So like i said at the start of this post i don't like him,to me him comes across as arrogant and reacts very poorly to situations when they don't go his way. Personally i have not seen such toxic team relationships since the Prost/Senna days. He is about himself more than the team. But,his record has to be respected.
McLaren will be back at the top with the honda engine but not with Alonso as Ron Dennis refuses to have him back
Alonso will be with Mercedes in 2015 or sitting the year out
If not 2015 then in 2016 and Hamilton will be back at Mclaren
Redbull not happy.
