McLaren needs to understand puzzling “up and down” F1 form – Piastri
Despite McLaren’s strong start to the season as they challenge Ferrari and Red Bull, their performance has been inconsistent, with unexpected struggles at certain tracks like Suzuka and unexpected strength at others such as Shanghai. Driver Oscar Piastri believes that understanding their performance against Ferrari is crucial for improving future results. The team is focusing on analyzing why they perform well on certain days and not on others, aiming to ensure their strategies are effective. McLaren’s success in China was surprising due to the track’s characteristics not usually favoring their car, leading to further investigation into their variable performance. Team principal Andrea Stella attributes their strong performance in China to the track’s unique conditions and adjustments made to the car’s setup.
