McLaren target further ‘exploitation’ after placing Miami vice on Mercedes
McLaren has seen a significant improvement in their performance following strong showings by Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri in Miami qualifying. With new upgrades on their MCL40s, Norris will start on pole and Piastri on third for the upcoming sprint race at Miami International Autodrome. Despite being split by Kimi Antonelli in the session, McLaren seems to have regained their competitive edge after a challenging start to the season, notably in China. Both Norris and Piastri are confident in the car, with Mercedes delaying their upgrades reveal until the next race in Canada. The team is pleased with their current progress and is focused on maintaining momentum throughout the weekend to maximize their points. McLaren’s technical director, Neil Houldey, credits the team for the positive steps forward and emphasizes the importance of translating their performance into tangible results.
