There is a book, called American Grand Prix Racing, that has a chapter devoted to Michael. It goes much further into what he had to deal with at McLaren, the long and short of it is that the car was a piece of ****, the team couldn't get things together and he literally had no testing to start the year and the car failed him virtually every time he got in it.

The way he was treated by Ron Dennis that year soured me on Ron Dennis and I have hated the McLaren team ever since. The book is worth a read. It's the only honest analysis of what Michael had to face and it's a credit to him that he has never aired it in a more public fashion.
