    Oh I have no doubts that McLaren can come up with one (probably a money no object vehicle like the F1 to showcase hybrid technology). Brilliant!! Can't wait!

    This is going to be awesome if McLaren does make a hybrid super car. And Ron Dennis is a man that makes things happen.

    The only thing I wonder about though is that it appears they have only had two job postings for hybrid engineers, as opposed to ten. But then again, I suppose it only takes one head/leader to teach the rest of the engineers and delineate the master design. Still though, I would expect more engineers with hybrid experience.
