via PlanetF1Stella makes Italian GP admission after Norris McLaren requestLando Norris has expressed concerns regarding the performance of the McLaren MCL40, particularly in low-speed situations, and has requested the team to focus on improvements. Despite recent successes, including back-to-back wins, he does not believe the car is capable of winning the championship without significant enhancements. McLaren's team principal, Andrea Stella, agrees that the upcoming Italian Grand Prix at Monza will be a critical test for the team's capabilities, especially given the track's characteristics that do not favor the MCL40's strengths.
Stella and Norris both recognize the challenges posed by Monza's long straights and braking zones, which are not ideal for their car. While McLaren has shown promise in high-speed circuits, the team needs to confirm their improvements at Monza to maintain optimism for the remainder of the season.
