McLaren Will Run Third Car on Fridays
"Small" McLaren Will Run Third Car on Fridays

"According to Autosport magazine, McLaren’s third man will likely be test driver Pedro de la Rosa, as its fellow tester Alexander Wurz has been deemed too tall to fit the upcoming MP4/20, the team’s 2005 challenger."

Some of the other big teams feel it is unsporting of McLaren to run a third car, as they aren't really one of the "small" teams - but hey, if the rules work in your favor...
