2024 Mclaren Formula 1 Team

I have a feeling Hamilton is being sabotaged by his team.

Not sure they made him lockup and lose half a second.

[Ben1980]

You can't find half a second from just one race when both Red Bull and Ferrari brought so many upgrades before and nothing of them worked. You can't tell me suddenly that they found so much time.

If that is the case the car needs the new full package from the next race.

For Redbull it wasn’t about finding time, but reclaiming time, they certainly had been pegged back from their own upgrades

Red Bull were close in Baku and Singapore. So, finding fixes was always going to push them to the top.

Are you telling me that Red Bull who was complaining about it's infrastructure not able to get much to the car and not understanding their upgrades, suddenly after one race they went half a second than the rest? I find it suspicious.

[Mansell89]

Red Bull in Max’s hands looking absolutely incredible around here- think this is where the long shot of a Championship fight ends.

Hopefully we can dig out a best case finish tomorrow for the Constructors.

Whats the difference between new tyres and used tyres?

[SilviuAgo]

I think this is first proper lap for McLarens.

What you have to remember is the focus of these upgrades were to fix what they previously did wrong and they had a lot of data to show them where, they’ve essentially reset the path and found a solid base again

[Darth-Piekus]

But not good enough. Max has done his time on used tyres but Lando on new tyres from what I heard.

Why?

In Baku Perez was pushing the leaders. In Singapore Max was easily second. They have been working hard on their car, which wasn't that bad anyway.

While that might be the case what are the chances for a team that couldn't understand what to do in 3 or 4 upgrade packages to suddenly find 5 tenths of time between this month?

Honeslty I don't care about Verstappen. This is about making MCL38 to work as they expected with the updates. Hope the ballance is back and they can push furthermore.

[Darth-Piekus]

We definately need the new package cause we so far are winning with the Miami car but it can go as far.

You have the answer from Verstappen times....+0.4/+0.5 for the used tyres.

Monza was a big turning point for them, once they assessed the data from that race into Singapore etc they had a good idea of what to do. Not everything is a conspiracy

[Darth-Piekus]

Considering the controversial past of Red Bull I find it hard to believe this is genuine. Looks like the WDC is done and we have to fight for the WCC with hurried upgrades.
