If you listen to Michael's interview with Marshall Pruitt, he makes a reference to someone at McLaren that didn't like him, but that is now gone. The person he is referring to is Tyler Alexander, who died in 2016. Those of you that know McLaren's history know how significant a role Tyler played and I would encourage you to think hard about what Michael said about people in the team sandbagging him. You might find that hard to believe, but then I would direct you to interviews that Tyler Alexander gave about Michael's performance after that year. You might find opinions given that matched fairly well to the press coverage of Michael that year, which should lead you to conclude where the press got their opinions of Michael's performance.
Formula 1 politics can be quite nasty. I would recommend that you read the book The Piranha Club, by Timothy Collings. Ron Dennis was quite an ******* and I hope he burns in hell for all eternity when he finally kicks the bucket.
