    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Mika Hakkinen, former F1 driver, two times world champion

    "There are always little conversations between the teammates. If you don't win, you are not happy, if you win you are happy and at that moment, Lewis (Hamilton) and Nico (Rosberg) they have, both these drivers they the chance to win. So far Lewis has been winning, so I think it is normal that there is this type of psychological game involved, but that's part of the game."

    "I am confident they (McLaren) will come back. I am confident that they will get the success. It just takes time, it takes time. The Formula 1 technology today, is a very complex thing and when newcomers are coming, with new engines coming to Formula 1, it is not so easy. It has never been easy, but it is now more challenging. There are so many technology issues which are effecting to get the power unit to generate the maximum performance. So it takes time and that's it, it just takes time, but I am confident that they will solve it, but when I don't know."
