McLaren haven’t had the best run of form in the last few races, and the staff have been working hard around the clock. There are also rumours of people leaving the team amongst difficulty in improving results. Extra long shifts have been reported to be fuelled by Freddo Bars!
“We have been working all hours of the day, sweating blood, and they give us 25p Freddo bars,” McLaren employee told a British tabloid speaking anonymously.
“The management hand them to the supervisors to divide them out to employers in their team. Strictly one each. The Freddos are handed out when a package is produced on a tight schedule. For example, we were given two weeks to produce the Spain upgrade in May.
“We all worked 24/7 to meet the deadline. We got it done in time. So a week later a Freddo was handed out to all staff involved as a ‘bonus’.”
It doesn’t sound like things are too good in the McLaren garage if chocolate is needed to boost morale!
