      Yea but it takes that mix and harmony of all kinds to win! I too did not give $0.02 on Brown at first but we gotta admit that under him McLaren became the power house of today with a fast car, 2 great drivers and a Championship!

      he has been racing since a young age so saying he knows fuck all about engineering really shows you know nothing. Sure he isn't as knowledgeable as the likes of Stella, Newey, Vowels, Allison but he is as knowledgeable as the drivers if not more given his years of experience.

      He formed the team, he avoided MCL being bankrupt, he funded the engineers so that they can do what they need, he built the infrastructure. It is not necessary that only one in a team can take the credit. It is a teamwork.

    Didn't I see McLaren swap driver positions for the win at least 3 times this season? I could be crazy but I'm pretty sure that isn't letting your drivers race. What a joke

    • @IanJames-n9f

      The team was trying to instill team work. Not sure if all the calls were right, but they are constructors' champs now

    •  21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Too many people think drivers' championships are what the team strives for, but constructors championships are actually what the team strives for. It takes a team effort to win the constructors title as is shown by Redbull, who only has one good driver. McLaren wasn't even trying to win a championship this year, so they had no real strategy except win as many races as they can with either driver.

    "Max might take a car that is 3rd quickest and win in it..." bro that exactly what Max did this year so it's not a probability that he'd do that but an inevitability and depending on the other current drivers who happen to have the faster cars (like lando, oscar, charles, george , carlos and even lewis at his current age) Max might even be able to take the 5th fastest car and win in it...maybe no the chip but more than 1 race...

    You will NEVER win a WDC with your driver taking points off each other.
    Have you not learned from 2007?
    You are making the same mistake twice!
    It is SO frustrating to watch Stella worrying about not upsetting Oscar and Webber all season, rather than actually helping Lando win a WDC!!!! Stella actually made Lando slow down 6 seconds and give the win to Oscar, in the middle of the WDC fight?! That's just madness!!!
    Now Stella is going to use Lando's data, to help Oscar, to take points off Lando for the WDC next year?! What is wrong with this team? Cannot you not see Red Bull using 2 teams and 3 drivers, giving Verstappen every single advantage possible in the WDC? Why is it so hard for McLaren to understand that's what it takes!

    • @erikvermolen8371

      As a McLaren fan it's incredibly frustrating.
      As an F1 fan I can't wait to see the battle between Lando and Oscar next year. It's going to be brutal, because both know they have to establish an undeniable lead if they want the team to support their championship.
      Been rooting for Lando for years, but Oscar is going to be hangry next year.

    •  21 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Drivers' championship doesn't matter and only exists to stroke the ego of the drivers. Pick a team because drivers come and go like Senna.
