McLaren boss reveals teamwork

McLaren team principal Andrea Stella explained that Norris’s race e🐬ngineer Will Joseph took it into his own hands to inform Stallard about his driver’s struggles to pass Hamilto🍃n.

“You’ve given me 💛tꦇhe opportunity here to actually tell you a story,” Stella said.

“The story is that Lando’s race engineer proactively told Oscar’s race engineer: ‘We struggled to pass Lewis because we attempted twice in Corner 27 and he passed us back in Corner 1, so 🎃make sure that Oscar knows that and he gives it a go directly in Corner 1.’

ꦓ“I was very proud while on the pit wall to hear that. I didn’t need to prompt anything.

“I was just a spectator to an example of the great team spirit and team work that we have𝐆 at McLare🔜n.

“So weℱll done to Will Joseph, well done to Tom Stallard, well done to the team of people.

“I think for a podium finish [Norris] would have needed not to lose t𒉰he time with Hamilton.

“Obviously, Hamilton is Lewis Hamilton. He knows very well how to race a☂nd for a couple of laps he managed to pass Lando.

“And I think this cost us the time that ultimately means that we could not give it a go at trying to overtake Leclercꦉ.”
