Gordon Murray to leave Mclaren?
From Autocar:
"The furture of Gordon Murray, father of the legendary McLaren F1 supercar, appears uncertain this week following news that the company intends to restructure its road car operations
McLaren confirmed last week that it is reviewing the organisation of Murray's Advanced concepts division, which was responsible for the new McLaren Merecedes SLR.
Martin Whitmarsh, the CEO of McLaren's F1 team, told Autocar that no decision had been taken regarding Murray's future, but we understand that he will be ending his 18 year association with the Woking company.
"We are in the process of consultation regarding whther there will be redundancies or not," added Whitmarsh.
Murray, 57, was unavailable for comment last week.
Whitmarsh said that the shake up would not affect plans for a new, smaller McLaren supercar codenamed P8, which is due to arrive in late 2007."
