McLaren vow to return to Indy

Fernando Alonso failed to qualify for the race on an extremely disappointing weekend for the team.

Brown said: “I feel an obligation to the fans and sponsors, we let them down. We didn’t fulfill our promise and I think they need more than just an apology.

“There will be repercussions for those who don’t deserve to work for a great team like McLaren. We will look at what we learned here and the list is a mile long.

“I hope people appreciate that we go for it, we are racers, and Fernando is a star and we are not quitters. We want to come back.”
