McLaren pushing for qualifying pace

McLaren will throw all it can into an upgrade package for its car over the next few weeks, as it eyes closing down the performance gap to main rivals Red Bull Racing at the Turkish Grand Prix. Although great driving and a good strategy call helped Lewis Hamilton end Sebastian Vettel's winning streak in Formula 1 in Shanghai, McLaren is under no illusions that it needs to lift its game.

Red Bull Racing plans an upgrade of its KERS for the Turkish Grand Prix, as it hopes that the changes will prevent a repeat of the issues that have dogged the team in the early races of the campaign. Both Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber have encountered problems with their KERS at every race held so far this season - with the issues almost certainly playing a part in preventing Vettel extending his winning streak in China last weekend
