Lando Norris believes McLaren now faces \u201cthe hardest task\u201d with improving its Formula 1 car despite massive recent performances gains thrusting the team into regular podium contention.
McLaren realised it had missed its performance targets over the winter so sought to play down expectations pre-season. It only scored points in three of the opening eight rounds. But after floor tweaks in Azerbaijan, team principal Andrea Stella vowed that “pretty much every single aerodynamic part” on the MCL60 would change via a three-stage upgrade plan that began with the Austrian GP. This paved the way for four second place finishes for Norris plus a podium for rookie Oscar Piastri in Japan.
The juggling act is one that's very difficult to achieve.” Lando Norris and Andrea Stella, McLaren Photo by: McLaren Norris backs McLaren and its restructured technical department to step up to the task, adding that he has more confidence in the team than ever before. “Do I have confidence in it? I would say yes,” he said. “After this year, I would say I have more confidence than ever that the team can look into these things that we want as drivers and actually start to chip away at them.
