Is this a big loss. I know he pushed the zero pod but was he also at Merc for their success before red bull took over?
Nope, that was Ellison. Elliot fucked up the W13 and then doubled down on the W14.
This feels more like Elliot wouldn't compromise on the concept for the car so had to go. McLaren have shown massive improvement adopting the RB concept so it doesn't leave him with a lot of political capital to keep pushing his preferred concept.
