A former F1 driver has pointed to a ‘problem’ the two McLaren drivers may have in their championship fight against Max Verstappen.
Former F1 driver Timo Glock has highlighted a potential issue facing McLaren’s Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri in their battle against Max Verstappen for the championship. McLaren have already secured the constructors’ championship in 2025, but the drivers’ championship is still up for grabs, with Norris and Piastri in contention with five races remaining. Verstappen’s recent strong performances have put him just 40 points behind Piastri, posing a significant threat. McLaren may struggle to compete for wins due to not only Verstappen but also the improving Ferrari and Mercedes teams, according to Glock. Verstappen, with his experience and dominance, is now seen as a strong contender for the 2025 F1 championship.
