McLaren’s Andrea Stella has unveiled a crucial focus area for the team to maximize their chances in this year’s Formula 1 competition.
As the reigning Constructors’ and Drivers’ Champions, McLaren faces uncertainty in maintaining their competitiveness with the introduction of new radical regulations.
The unpredictability of F1 outcomes this year is heightened by the introduction of new cars and equally-split hybrid power units.
McLaren’s usage of the Mercedes power unit has sparked intrigue due to alleged illegality and potential performance advantages.

Improving the exploitation of the new power unit and maximizing driver options are keys to unlocking greater performance levels, as stated by Stella.
