You mean like the BMW S70 engine in the Mclaren F1? They worked together before, why not again. A possible answer is that Mclaren seems to be doing adequately (does dominating count as adequate?) in that segment all on their own.

Yeah that's a good point, but the last BMW McLaren partnership did create one of the best cars ever made... Maybe one day McLaren will want something BMW has and we'll see the collaboration again. Aston Martin borrowed a Toyota IQ if I remember rightly and called it a Sygnet. Maybe McLaren could borrow the 35UP platform and lend the 650S chassis to BMW.
