McLaren decided not to take part in Pirellis 2017 tyre testing programme as it believed designing mule a car would have been too much of a distraction.Testing of 2017 prototype tyres got underway this week when Ferrari and Red Bull ran mule cars fitted with the new, wider rubber. In order to be ready for the challenge of 2017, Pirelli will complete 24 testing days with Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes before the end of the year, including a final validation test at Abu Dhabi with all three teams present.The three teams have all developed mule cars to accommodate the wider rubber and simulate the increased downforce loads in 2017, but McLaren opted to reject the invitation to do the same.In the end you have to balance the costs and the distraction for your resources, McLaren racing director Eric Boullier explained. Where we are now obviously, we believe it was better not to get distracted by doing a new car and [Pirelli] testing.There is some learning to do the testing, but most of the data is shared to the non-testing teams and I think that, today, we are not where we want to be so wed be better focused on making our car faster.Williams technical director Pat Symonds believes the teams testing will be at an inherent advantage next year after his team considered taking part in the tests but ultimately withdrew for cost reasons. However, when Boullier was asked if he thought McLaren would be at a disadvantage by not testing, he simply replied: No.Boullier said McLaren has now shifted its focus to 2017 with all future developments for the 2016 car aimed at providing some carry over to next year.There will obviously be some car developments after the shutdown - every development that we are doing is obviously applicable to next years car so now we have focused on this and next years car.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- DeShone Kizer and Malik Zaire will share duties at quarterback when Notre Dame opens the season at Texas on Sept. 4.Neither is happy.Its not the most ideal situation but as a pro you need to deal with the cards youre dealt and make something happen. So our goal is to turn chicken crap into chicken salad, Zaire said.Zaire said if he were at any other school, he doesnt think the decision would be that hard.Kizer said he believes there should be one quarterback.I committed here and decided to play college football to be that one guy. When you decide to play this position, especially at this level, you have to have the desire to be the only guy out there, he said.Kelly said he understood both werent happy with the decision, but said he made it for one reason.My job is to win, and my belief is playing both of them gives us a better chance to win, Kelly said.Zaire was expected to compete with Everett Golson for the starting job a year ago, but became the starter when Golson transferred to Florida State. Zaire, the first left-hander to ever start for the Irish, impressed immediately by completing 19 of 22 passes for 313 yards and three touchdowns in a season-opening 38-3 win over Texas. His 86.4 percent completion rate in that game ranks second in school history for a single game and the best since 1984.His tenure as the starter was short-livved because of the broken ankle a week later against Virginia.dddddddddddd Zaire rallied the Irish to victory in that game with a 40-yard touchdown pass with 12 seconds left and led the Irish to eight more victories and a No. 11 ranking.Kelly said the two have played too well to sit either out, saying they had run 257 plays in practice so far with a combined total of two interceptions.And thats with guys not in the right position and running the wrong routes. Its been remarkable, he said.The two quarterbacks are similar enough that Notre Dame wont have to make big changes depending on who is in the game, Kelly said. He said each has been among the top five playmakers.Both players said they will work to make the best of the situation.For this to work, were both going to have to buy into it, Kizer said.Zaire said he wants to be the one his teammates can rally around.Because thats whats really important. Because if nobody believes in either one of us it doesnt matter, Zaire said. So I think its important to be able to get guys on the same page and score points.Kelly said he doesnt know what he will do after the Texas game.Im focused strictly on Texas and we are best prepared to beat Texas by playing both DeShone and Malik, he said.
