Vandoorne: McLaren hasn't offered explanation for 2019 decision
MARINA BAY, Singapore -- Stoffel Vandoorne is still waiting on an explanation from McLaren as to why he has been dropped for 2019.
Vandoorne has driven for McLaren for the last two seasons and first received backing from the team in 2013 when he was racing in Formula Renault 3.5. But next year he will be replaced by McLaren junior driver Lando Norris, leaving Vandoorne without a drive in Formula One.
His results have been below par in recent races and he has been outqualified by teammate Fernando Alonso at every round, but Vandoorne said he still expected a proper explanation from team boss Zak Brown.
