- Team principal admits ‘we were a little cautious’
- McLaren only trail Red Bull by 8pts in constructors’ race
McLaren’s team principal, Andrea Stella, has said they will review team orders with a view to backing Lando Norris in his bid to beat Max Verstappen to the Formula One world championship.
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc won the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday while McLaren could return only second and third for Oscar Piastri and Norris from their one-two on the grid. With Verstappen finishing a distant sixth, the race was an ideal chance for Norris to close the gap to the world champion but he gained only eight points on his rival.
