Apple and McLaren were in talks, and nothing more: It's been only a month since we've heard that Apple is in talks with McLaren, the company planned on buying the carmaker, at least that's what the rumors were saying. A McLaren spokesperson flatly denied the rumor at the time, but it turns out that perhaps the truth of the matter is a little more complex than that denial encompassed.
In an interview with Reuters, McLaren's acting CEO Mike Flewitt confirmed that there were talks with Apple, but that they never reached the stage where Apple made a bid. He said that Apple never offered a bid, they made a visit, they talked but it never matured to a definitive proposition. Even if Apple had made a bid, it seems like the people who run McLaren might not have been in the mood to take it. As you might remember, long-time CEO Ron Dennis was ousted recently from his position after a 35-year run. And now the new CEO took his place, with probably new rules.
