McLaren is introducing a revised front suspension at the Canadian Grand Prix in hopes of addressing a “numb” feeling both Lando Norris and teammate Oscar Piastri have experienced during the season. This updated suspension geometry includes a small modification to optimize local flow conditioning and accommodate the geometry change. Both drivers have faced challenges extracting peak performance from the MCL39, particularly in qualifying sessions. The team aims to improve predictability and comfort for the drivers, especially under braking, with the new suspension setup. McLaren is also testing a new front wing design for enhanced aerodynamic performance in various conditions during Canadian Grand Prix practices. The modifications are focused on overall car performance and driver comfort, rather than favoring one driver, emphasizing a balanced approach to enhance the driving experience for all McLaren drivers.
