Yep, and that's something that's become a McLaren tradition in the last few years
BTW didn't Chapman say something like "The perfect racing car is one that falls apart after the finish line"? Jordan and Fisichella certainly proved that theory right in Brazil this year when the engine blew up just after the red flag!
