LONDON (Reuters) - McLaren Racing are seeking around $20 million in their London lawsuit against four-times IndyCar champion Alex Palou over his aborted move to the team, though the Spanish driver's lawyers on Monday argued that Palou owed McLaren nothing.

McLaren Racing, who run the reigning Formula One world champions and the Arrow McLaren team in U.S.-based IndyCars, are suing Palou after his move fell apart three years ago.
