168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson believes his criticism of McLaren’s decision to play the British national anthem when they win in F1 was “taken out of context”.

Lawson questioned th🐷e Woking outfit’s d🉐ecision to play the British national anthem when they win races in F1 rather than the New Zealand one.

McLaren were founded by N🐎ew Zealand racing legend Bruce McLaren in 1963 before entering F1 three years later.

McLaren have operated under a Britis෴h licence meaning all of their 188 race victories have resulted in a rendition of ‘God Save the King’ being played.

this during🍸 aꦓ recent appearance on The Red Flags podcast.

The Kiwi sai൲d: “It makes no sense. It’s a New Zealand team. The name is still ♎McLaren.

“Red Bull play the Austrian national anthem and the team’s based in the UK. 🌼McLaren is based in the UK, but it’s a New Zealand team.

“It’s coꦗmܫpletely bull**** is what it is, honestly. Especially if you’re from New Zealand. Because Bruce McLaren is an absolute legend.”

Lawson wꦅas asked about his comments in the pre-race FIA press conference for the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

He claimed his criticism was “more of a joke”.

“I mean, I think this is stuff that I'm learning in Formula 1. As Lando said, stuff gets taken out of context,” he explained. “And it's ironic, I was laughing when I mentioned this comment in a podcast. And it was more o🐲f a joke, but obviously it got taken very literally.

“So, yeah, I don't really have anything to add on that. Obviously, I🧔'm very proud to be from New Zealand and our motorsport history. Bruce McLaren is somebody who is an absolute icon in New Zealand in motorsport.

“So somebody I looked up to and learned🍒 a lot about, let's say, when I was you🔯nger.

“So, yeah, obviously proud to be a New Zealander, but I don't have anything to add on the nati♍onal anthem.”
