Ron Dennis will not leave McLaren voluntarily until they win again, former BAR boss Dave Richards has told the F1 Report. Dennis is being linked with an exit from the racing side of the Woking squad this winter but Richards cannot see him leaving unless he decides to go.McLaren have not won a race since the end of 2012 in Brazil and Dennis returned to the helm in 2014 after a barren year in which they failed to claim a podium. Theyve made a lot of changes recently, brought in a lot of good people now, theyve got all the ingredients, I cannot imagine Ron stepping down until he sees that team winning again, said Richards. And that will be the right time to do it.A number of names have been mentioned in respect of taking over the racing side of the McLaren business, but one man Richards does not expect to see arrive is former team principal and long-term lieutenant of Dennis, Martin Whitmarsh.No way. Martin is well established with the Americas Cup BAR Racing. I cant imagine him ever wanting to come back to Formula 1, he added. Former McLaren mechanic Marc Priestley believes the team would benefit from change, but also thinks the loss of Dennis could destabilise them.I think he is both brilliant and perhaps one of the reasons McLaren struggled to move forwards, Priestley said.Weve looked over the years where McLaren have had a blank car with a lack of sponsors and maybe that is because Ron is so adamant and so set in his ways that he wont reduce the price - he harks back to the tobacco era when you could ask whatever you wanted for a sticker on the side of the car. This week on the F1 Report, Natalie Pinkham is joined by Head of Prodrive and former Benetton and BAR team principal David Richards and Marc Priestley I think the team needs change, it has had change over the last couple of years and I think it is moving forwards in a pretty good direction at the moment. I think when Ron stepped away last time the team suffered because when Ron is in the team the standards are raised. I have huge respect for Martin Whitmarsh, but when he stepped in I think standards subconsciously dropped a little bit. That is no disrespect to Martin, but I think Ron demands an incredible level of respect throughout the team and the team would take a while to get used to it if he does go.Dont miss The F1 Reports review of the United States GP on Sky Sports F1 at 8.30pm on Wednesday evening with Natalie Pinkham, Marc Priestley and Dave Richards Also See: Brundle: Dennis will leave McLaren F1 Gossip Column Whens the Mexican GP on Sky F1?

Portugals Michelle Larcher de Brito stunned the third-seeded Sharapova in 6-3, 6-4 fashion on some slick grass on Court No. 2 at the famed All England Club, while the second-seeded Azarenka pulled out of her scheduled second-round match because of a knee injury. Sharapova took three different spills during her shriek-filled match against the 20-year-old Larcher de Brito and also fell to the court during warm ups on the weird Day 3. The Russian superstar left the court at one point in the second set to get some treatment on her left hip and was never able to get all the way into her match on Wednesday. Sharapova saved four match points in the 10th game of the second set, but the 131st-ranked Larcher de Brito converted on a fifth when the Russian netted one final forehand. The career Grand Slam winner Sharapova captured her lone Wimbledon title in 2004 by upsetting Serena Williams in the final and was the 2011 runner-up here to Czech slugger Petra Kvitova. Sharapova was this months French Open runner-up to the great Williams and also lost to Williams in last years Olympic gold-medal match on the grass here at the All England Club. Meanwhile, Azarenka was slated to take on Flavia Pennetta in the second round, but she was clearly hobbled during her first-round win over Portugals Maria Joao Koehler on Monday. Azarenka did a split behind the baseline during the match and injured her right knee, which required treatment on three occasions as she completed a 6-1, 6-2 triumph. The 2012 U.S. Open runner-up tried to warm up on Wednesday morning before the match, but was unable to play, giving Pennetta a walkover into the third round. Azarenka said that medical tests showed she had a bone bruise in the knee and was unable to recover in time. "We tried to do everything as possible, but it was just very significcant fall," she said.dddddddddddd "To recover in two days after that seems impossible with the compensation on the entire body by finishing that match." Azarenka was a semifinalist here each of the last two years. The eighth-seeded former Wimbledon champ Kvitova reached the round of 32 without lifting her racquet, as Kazakhstans Yaroslava Shvedova pulled out of their second-rounder because of a right arm injury. In addition to Azarenka and Sharapova, two other former world No. 1s exited the draw, as Czech Petra Cetkovska defeated ninth-seeded Dane Caroline Wozniacki, who was nursing an apparent foot or ankle injury, 6-2, 6-2, and, making her Centre Court debut in front of members of the Royal Family, rising 19-year-old Canadian Eugenie Bouchard took out 12th-seeded Serb Ana Ivanovic 6-3, 6-3. The former U.S. Open runner-up Wozniacki has never reached a Wimbledon quarterfinal, while Ivanovic is a former French Open champ who hasnt advanced beyond the fourth round at the All England Club since a semifinal showing back in 2007. The 66th-ranked Bouchard captured the girls juniors crown at the All England Club last year. Five of the top-10 womens seeds are already gone just three days into the fortnight. American Sloane Stephens, seeded 17th, snuck past former top-10 German Andrea Petkovic 7-6 (7-2), 2-6, 8-6. Stephens was an Aussie Open semifinalist in January. In other action involving seeds, No. 19 Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain overcame Croat Mirjana Lucic-Baroni 1-6, 6-3, 6-3, No. 25 Russian Ekaterina Makarova edged out Spaniard Garbine Muguruza 6-2, 6-7 (3-7), 6-4, Italian Karin Knapp doused No. 27 Czech Lucie Safarova 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, and No. 29 Alize Cornet of France drubbed Taiwans Su-Wei Hsieh 6-3, 6-2.
