Despite Max Verstappen’s dominance and Lewis Hamilton’s winless seasons in 2022 and 2023, McLaren’s CEO Zak Brown believes Hamilton and his team have a chance to come out on top in 2024. Brown is optimistic about McLaren’s prospects for the upcoming season, citing positive results in wind tunnel and CFD testing. However, he acknowledges the mystery surrounding Red Bull’s car development and the potential magic that renowned engineer Adrian Newey can bring.
