Aerodynamicist David Sanchez has departed from McLaren just three months after being heralded as a significant signing by the Formula One team in their quest to reclaim the top spot in the sport. The Frenchman's exit was confirmed by McLaren in a recent statement outlining internal changes within the team.
Sanchez had joined McLaren from Ferrari in January, where he had been on 'gardening leave' for nearly a year, assuming the role of technical director for car concept and performance. However, McLaren revealed that they were restructuring the position to focus more on performance aspects.
