Yesterday was Ron Dennis' 68th birthday. An F1 mechanic for Cooper and Brabham in the 1960s, the Briton became McLaren's team principal in 1981 and helped further cement the Woking-based outfit's reputation as one of the biggest powerhouses in the sport. Under his stewardship, McLaren has won 10 Drivers' championships and seven Constructors' championships.
