via f1oversteer.comMcLaren engineers think they have fix for one key ‘weakness’ of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri’s carMcLaren is preparing to introduce significant upgrades for the 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, focusing on enhancing the performance of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri's MCL40 car.

via gpfans.comMartin Brundle claims F1 champion 'robbed' in controversial callDuring the recent Spanish Grand Prix, Lando Norris was leading the race when a Virtual Safety Car disrupted his momentum, allowing Kimi Antonelli to take the victory.
