Did McLaren have to pay Alpine?
I'm curious, did McLaren indeed have to fork over some funds to Alpine? Was this a contractual obligation that had to be fulfilled? Or was it a case of one team owing the other for some sort of transfer or service? And if so, what was the specific reason behind this financial transaction? Was it a penalty fee for breaking a rule or an agreement? Or perhaps it was simply a matter of settling a debt between the two racing giants? I'm eager to learn the details behind this intriguing question of McLaren's potential payment to Alpine.
