Ron Dennis is stepping down from McLaren.
Ron Dennis' 35-year tenure as the boss of McLaren has come to an end.
Dennis, 69, quit after being told by fellow shareholders on Tuesday that he must give up his position as chairman and chief executive of McLaren Group.
He did not want to step down and failed in a High Court bid last week to prevent McLaren putting him on 'gardening leave'. In a statement, Dennis said he was "disappointed" and called the grounds for his removal "entirely spurious".
He remains on the boards of McLaren Technology Group and McLaren Automotive and retains significant shareholdings in both.
Sad news and the End of an Era.
