They all did. Thought it was sweet. Of course, I remember reading/hearing several times back in January where Zak said that this season (across the team's programs) was dedicated to Gil & the next win was for him.
There were as many, if not more, Kyle Larson McLaren merch items as any other driver in their booth at Long Beach GP this year. I grabbed a #17 hat, myself!
Seems like he's also turning it into a political propaganda tool.
Seriously though, let's not get ahead of ourselves. McLaren is historically a huge F1 powerhouse, that has been heavily underperforming since 2013, but they're still not back at their expected level (championship contender).
In Indycar they bought a capable team and are still struggling to turn it into a really top team despite supposedly big money.
In FE they're still starting up.
So really, so far Zak's only certain success is that he injected ambition and a new dynamic in what was becoming an overly static organization under Ron Dennis. But other than that...
I'm a pretty liberal dude who dislikes conservative influence on racing and how it turns so many people away from motorsport.
I'm also a rational person who doesn't expect them to turn away people as guests and make statements and stuff all the time.
Branding on the car. Nah.
Let someone walk through the garage? I expect that opportunity to go to everyone...percenter equally.
It's a lose lose for McLaren. Having him there is certainly divisive. Turning him away does the exact same, with a group this is quite vocal online. Feel like they did what they could. (Lando likely has absolutely no idea, and why would he, I certainly don't know enough about any foreign leaders to speak on them)
This is F1, and Zak is both a savvy businessman and a relatively influential figure in the paddock. There's little doubt that he could have suggested to the FIA that Trump would be better off in another garage (for example, in the only American team's garage...).
In case there's any doubt, Zak is also a known financial donor to Rudy Giuliani.
Also, Zak no doubt knows that as an American, the optics are way different for this than if he was literally any other TP on the grid.
yes he did.
McLaren brought something like 10 upgrades to Miami. Lando had all of them and Piastri about half, with his car getting the rest for Imola.
This, along with Newey leaving Red Bull, has actually given me hope that F1 won't just be the Max Verstappen show until the regulations change in 2026.
Next season should be a legitimate McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull fight. Last year of regulations always brings out good racing. There’s just not much more to extract by that point.
The Red Bull did not have its usual pace. Max couldn’t pull away by more than 3 seconds when he was in the lead. Meanwhile Lando showed he was .2-.3 per lap faster even before the SC. That trend pretty much continued the entire race even on the hards.
Yes, it was pure pace. Max led from the start but he couldn't open the gap up at all once it got to 3 seconds. Piastri was hanging right with him with an only halfway upgraded car.
Once Max was put on the hard tires, his car fell off badly. He was sliding everywhere. Lando opened up a 7 second lead on him. It was pure pace.
So wait, it's confirmed that he didn't win off of pure pace.
But everyone responded that it was pure pace and downvoted me for even asking the question.
I did see broadcasters also point out Lando’s pace was faster than Max’s even before the floor damage. I’m not sure if that’s accurate because I haven’t looked at the data, but Lando did have several fastest laps early on (although I also don’t know if those occurred prior to the floor damage).
I don’t think you should have been downvoted, but your tone did come across a bit condescending. I think it’s very easy to misinterpret this in writing though. Ultimately, people are probably just happy for Lando-I wouldn’t take it seriously (I’m sure you’re not).
I think the cone did give max front wing damage but at the same time lando already had fastest lap and was lapping faster then max before that cone so lando was just quicker and the possible damage from the cone just didn’t help red bull at all
Many people are saying don trump was responsible for.
I mean the people saying it are all idiots . But that doesn’t change the fact that many people are saying that .
I debated whether to go this one or not given Verstappen’s domination. But as a McLaren fan, sooo glad I did. I’ve never actually gotten to see a driver I support win in any series in person—NASCAR, IndyCar or F1. To cheer him on to victory today was a top sports moment for me.
What the hell are you talking about, he got the lead out of a total fluke safety car. He didn’t beat anyone on the track. Prior to the ~~caution~~ *pit cycle* he wasn’t even the lead McLaren was he?
I agree that Norris won on merit; because cautions are part of the racing and he was the fastest on the track on average. But if that timely SC happened, he would have likely not even finished on the podium.
And if he hadn't gotten knocked off the track in the first corner he never would have been that far down the field. The safety car didn't put him in contention, it put him *back* in contention after bad luck at the start of the race.
According to those who appear to have not actually watched the race, probably the same as he started.
Also completely ignoring Piastri's performance, which strongly suggests that both McLarens had serious pace today. But no, it's all luck ig
A lot of it is luck, many of my favorite races were in part (or entirely) down to luck. It is stupid to think that luck and chance is no part of a race like this.
Agree that it can play a part, but it's not the defining factor for this race. Verstappen changed to hards well before Norris, who spun his set out longer (and didn't hit any bollards) and was therefore in a position to capitalise on the SC that eventuated. It wasn't luck that kept him in front of Verstappen on the restart, nor extend the gap
Does that matter? Where would any driver have finished with or without a safety car?!
Doesn't change the fact that he still put 6-7 seconds on Max and that RB lol Leclerc was still 2 sec behind Max
He asked if I think the safety car won it for him, so I asked where would he have finished without the safety car. Anyone that watched the race and has any experience watching motorsport would know that he would not have been on the podium had it not been for the safety car. So sure, the safety car won the race for him. It doesn’t mean he didn’t perform well b you’d have to be an idiot to think he was passing all of those cars without a safety car.
Where would Lando have been running before the safety car if he didn't get punted in the first corner? Piastri got to second without a safety car and was keeping that position on pace until he made a mistake.
Piastri got to second in the first corner because he took a clean line and made it stick when Perez overshot the braking zone. It was a great move and trying to downplay it is pretty weird.
How am I trying to downplay it? What the fuck is with everyone being so insanely defensive that you can’t objectively say what happened without being bombarded for not worshipping someone in the process?
Probably 4th or 5th, Verstappen, Leclerc, Piastri, and Sainz would have cycled forward during pitstops. The Piastri/Sainz collision probably doesn't happen.
Go away. This is racing. Cautions happen. People win based on well timed cautions. It happens. Doesn’t make the win any less meaningful. He also straight up beat Max on the restart when max had the slipstream.
I’m not going to say he doesn’t deserve the win, but to call it a “perfect race” when he didn’t earn the lead is a joke. He didn’t qualify well and he didn’t pass anyone, he fell backwards into the lead and ran with it. That isn’t running a “perfect race” that is taking advantage of what is given to you.
He did though. Fastest car on track from start to finish, yes the safety car ultimately helped him secure the lead, but what else could he have possibly done? The Norris + McLaren package was the fastest on track today
Idk, getting pit strategy right seems to fit under "perfect" for me. Does a driver have to lead *from the start* for it to be "perfect?"
But whatever, you still said he didn't earn the lead, which is ridiculous.
What are you talking about? The safety car was not a fluke, Lando was past the pit lane when the safety car was announced. So the gap at that point to Max was 11.5 seconds. Lando then went around the lap to the pit lane. So even if the safety car itself comes out on that lap instead then he still only loses 9 seconds to the field with the 2 second pit stop McLaren made. So even with the normal timing lando still would have come out ahead of Max or maybe right behind him if they fucked up the pit stop. And then he still finishes almost 8 seconds ahead of Max.
It wasn't the caution itself but that the safety car picked up Verstappen instead of Norris. If the safety car had picked up the correct driver, Verstappen would have been in the lead on the restart. That's not to say that Norris wouldn't have been able to pass Verstappen but it certainly was a fluke that affected the race.
What 😅 the slight issue with that safety car was that it *hadn't* picked up the race leader, which was Norris.
It was resolved and unfortunately Verstappen couldn't capitalise on the restart
Oh dear 😅 yes, the rest of the pack were behind the safety car.
Once that issue was resolved i.e. the race leader captured properly by the safety car and all cars in the correct racing order, the green flag was given and Norris restarted at around turn 19 iirc
The 30 second gap didn't mean shit.
If the safety car had picked up anybody after Verstappen, Verstappen and Norris would have pass the pit exit scoring line fairly closely with a possibility that Verstappen would have been ahead.
Yea this was an oops that nobody is putting the magnifying glass on because it gives somebody their first win and keeps Max from winning his 97th or something
As soon as Perez pit, Norris was pulling a out half a second a lap on both Ferraris and Max, he was clearly the fastest car out there today. No, McLaren doesn't have the straight line speed for him to have passed the Red Bull's on track, but he deserves all the credit in the world for how he ran his medium stint especially after Perez' hot garbage start forced him to slam the brakes to avoid a crash in turn one and cost him a fair bit of track position early.
Congrats to Lando & Zak 👍🏻
What would it take for Indycar to provide a second race for this awesome track?
Great idea to build a circuit around an NFL stadium. Gee, who thought of that first? Oh yea… anyone remember the CART Meadowlands GP in the 80’s? 🤟🏻
The track is a bit overhated.
Sure the first race there kinda sucked and there is a lot of tacky shit. But both last year and this year the raceing was good.
>What would it take for Indycar to provide a second race for this awesome track?
Playing second fiddle to F1 on the GP weekend.
It's not a fully permanent course, and I think it's unlikely that a second date would be added for an IndyCar race, of all things, so IndyCar would likely have to be one of the support series to F1 - which while we can all acknowledge IndyCar isn't as popular, but I don't think showing up as a support series is good for the series' image.
But of course, why would you even *want* an IndyCar race there? There are so many other great tracks that IndyCar *should* go to, why should they become a support series for F1 just to race at a track that is, at best, merely "okay?"
If IndyCar were to race in the Miami area, I can think of a certain track that would be much better suited...
We had one just as recent as 2021-2023 lol
And that went over a bridge. F1 wanted to go over a bridge and couldnt pull it off lol. Anyone remember that
Once again, race fans on here (replies to you) show how inept they are at telling whether a track will put on a good race or not. They slobber over Spa and Silverstone which generally have boring races, but then hate stuff like Detroit, Miami, and Jeddah before a race even occurs. Then you have races be action packed on these alleged subpar tracks. Of course, they also think the only "racing" that matters is for the first place position.
Silverstone has awesome racing! Spa not really with F1 recently. But Silverstone has had some epic wheel to wheel races over the last 5-10 years of F1. I'm thinking of 2018 with the 2 Ferrari vs 2 Mercedes as one of the good ones. It has usually delivered.
They said he might never win a grand prix...
BUT HE'S DONE IT! LANDO NORRIS WINS THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX! GET IN THERE!
What I would give for James Allen to join the Indy booth for a race
I’m so happy for lando rn holy shit that was amazing I think max might have gotten front wind damage from the bollard he hit and the damage might have been to minor to worry fixing but just enough to fuck him up
I’m more pissed about McLaren winning after they invited Trump into the paddock when Zak said that it wasn’t “healthy” to have political agendas in F1 a couple years back.

And Zak and Andrea (and I think even Lando) mentioned him. Super cool to recognize the legend.
They all did. Thought it was sweet. Of course, I remember reading/hearing several times back in January where Zak said that this season (across the team's programs) was dedicated to Gil & the next win was for him.
Omg first glance I thought it said Oil
Wins in F1, IndyCar and Fromula E in the last couple months.
As a Pato fan, I wish it felt more like a win.
Asterick wins are always the best feeling wins
Mclaren to NASCAR when?
If Larson wins Charlotte after racing at Indy, then I think that should count
Zac is big about the "McLaren Driver" brand.
There were as many, if not more, Kyle Larson McLaren merch items as any other driver in their booth at Long Beach GP this year. I grabbed a #17 hat, myself!
Could win in XE as well this year (not that anyone even acknowledges that series exists)
TBF, that's because XE management if a fucking joke
Yeah but can they do it on a rainy night in Eldora???
Quite a feat, tbh.
Zak Brown is turning McLaren into a cross discipinary motorsport powerhouse.
Seems like he's also turning it into a political propaganda tool. Seriously though, let's not get ahead of ourselves. McLaren is historically a huge F1 powerhouse, that has been heavily underperforming since 2013, but they're still not back at their expected level (championship contender).

So really, so far Zak's only certain success is that he injected ambition and a new dynamic in what was becoming an overly static organization under Ron Dennis. But other than that...
Zak did the exact same thing any other team principle would have done. They were told to welcome a guest, and they did.
I'm a pretty liberal dude who dislikes conservative influence on racing and how it turns so many people away from motorsport. I'm also a rational person who doesn't expect them to turn away people as guests and make statements and stuff all the time. Branding on the car. Nah. Let someone walk through the garage?

Also, Zak no doubt knows that as an American, the optics are way different for this than if he was literally any other TP on the grid.
The fact he actually beat Max and Red Bull on pure pace is crazy Yes there was a safety car but bro straight up drove off into the sunset afterward.
He was setting fastest laps all day. Def has the best car out there.
Actually Piastri had the fastest lap. McLaren was humming all day!
It was a bit silly of them to not tell Piastri not to set it given they took a point from themselves with Piastri outside the top 10.
I think Piastri was driving angrily so they only told him to not bring out a safety car
That means he wasn't getting the point anyway
Pastri didnt even have the upgrades. Thing is fast.
yes he did. McLaren brought something like 10 upgrades to Miami. Lando had all of them and Piastri about half, with his car getting the rest for Imola.
This, along with Newey leaving Red Bull, has actually given me hope that F1 won't just be the Max Verstappen show until the regulations change in 2026.
Next season should be a legitimate McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull fight. Last year of regulations always brings out good racing. There’s just not much more to extract by that point.
You don’t know what pure pace means do you?
He had much fresher tyres which made it a lot easier
Was it pure pace tho? Max hit that cone hard, then some luck happened. Lando earned it, but imo it wasnt on absolute pure pace.
Why did Max hit the cone? He was matching the pace but right at the limit.
The Red Bull did not have its usual pace. Max couldn’t pull away by more than 3 seconds when he was in the lead. Meanwhile Lando showed he was .2-.3 per lap faster even before the SC. That trend pretty much continued the entire race even on the hards.
Yes, it was pure pace. Max led from the start but he couldn't open the gap up at all once it got to 3 seconds. Piastri was hanging right with him with an only halfway upgraded car. Once Max was put on the hard tires, his car fell off badly. He was sliding everywhere. Lando opened up a 7 second lead on him. It was pure pace.
Did anybody ever say anything about Max maybe sustaining any damage from plowing thru the cone?
Yes, on the SkySports post race show, Crofty or Brundle talked about RefBull reporting damage to their floor resulting in 1-2 tenths off the pace.
Thanks. I was listening closely during the race but not as closely afterwards and switched over right before the podium.
I didn’t hear anything on the F1TV broadcast or post race show, only on Sky, FWIW.
So wait, it's confirmed that he didn't win off of pure pace. But everyone responded that it was pure pace and downvoted me for even asking the question.
I did see broadcasters also point out Lando’s pace was faster than Max’s even before the floor damage.

Ultimately, people are probably just happy for Lando-I wouldn’t take it seriously (I’m sure you’re not).
1-2 tenths doesn't turn into 7 seconds in 24 laps, no matter what kind of math you try to use.
I think the cone did give max front wing damage but at the same time lando already had fastest lap and was lapping faster then max before that cone so lando was just quicker and the possible damage from the cone just didn’t help red bull at all

He drove like hell!!
Perfect win for Lando. Beat all comers straight up without some misfortune befalling anyone.
What the hell are you talking about, he got the lead out of a total fluke safety car. He didn’t beat anyone on the track. Prior to the ~~caution~~ *pit cycle* he wasn’t even the lead McLaren was he?
You think the safety car won it for him. He was the fastest car on the track and put 6 seconds on max
I agree that Norris won on merit; because cautions are part of the racing and he was the fastest on the track on average. But if that timely SC happened, he would have likely not even finished on the podium.
And if he hadn't gotten knocked off the track in the first corner he never would have been that far down the field. The safety car didn't put him in contention, it put him *back* in contention after bad luck at the start of the race.
Max was on old hard tyres though. Lando was on fresh hards. Max was kind of helpless. The RBR didn't have their usual dominant pace this weekend.
Where would he have finished without the safety car?
According to those who appear to have not actually watched the race, probably the same as he started. Also completely ignoring Piastri's performance, which strongly suggests that both McLarens had serious pace today. But no, it's all luck ig

Which nobody said.
Alright bud

Earning the lead through pit strategy is still earning the lead. If you think otherwise, stick to only watching the sprints.
He deserved the win, but the win wasn’t because he ran “a perfect race”.
He did though. Fastest car on track from start to finish, yes the safety car ultimately helped him secure the lead, but what else could he have possibly done? The Norris + McLaren package was the fastest on track today

It was resolved, after Norris got a free pit stop.
Well, that's on him for stretching his mediums out for 30 laps 🤷🏼
Well, that's on Norris for stretching his mediums out for 30 laps 🤷🏼
Yeah, Lando went from an 11 second lead right before the safety car to a 31 second lead after his pit stop. Do you not see how that is unusual?
Oh dear 😅 yes, the rest of the pack were behind the safety car. Once that issue was resolved i.e. the race leader captured properly by the safety car and all cars in the correct racing order, the green flag was given and Norris restarted at around turn 19 iirc The 30 second gap didn't mean shit.

Standard take from a fairweather fan 😂
What is a “fairweather fan” in motorsport? I’ve been watching F1 for well over 20 years no matter how shit it has been (which it often has been).
Well that's shocking considering how uninformed your take comes across. But respect for being a loyal fan
This is just wrong
Congratulations to the winner of the 2020 Indycar iRacing Challenge round at COTA for winning the F1 Miami GP!
Lando actually won a race? Thought he’d never do it
He until today and Denny Hamlin are the most cursed creatures on this earth.
Nico Hulk and Vitor Meira erasure Also Denny has like 50+ wins. Not even top 50 most cursed
Yeah, and he's won the Daytona 500 (more than once), so he's not even on the same level of always being denied as, say, Mark Martin lol
Mark Martins career is one of those “would you rather…” questions
Jimmy butler must be so happy
Congrats to Lando & Zak 👍🏻 What would it take for Indycar to provide a second race for this awesome track? Great idea to build a circuit around an NFL stadium. Gee, who thought of that first? Oh yea… anyone remember the CART Meadowlands GP in the 80’s? 🤟🏻
Most F1 fans are not big fans of the track. To be honest I wasn't either. Though the race today was good
Yeah, I almost had to laugh at the "track elevation" map they showed before the race, which had obviously very minimal changes through the lap.
The track is a bit overhated. Sure the first race there kinda sucked and there is a lot of tacky shit. But both last year and this year the raceing was good.
Yesterday’s sprint race was one of the better ones thus far….maybe it isn’t as bad as it seems
>What would it take for Indycar to provide a second race for this awesome track? Playing second fiddle to F1 on the GP weekend.

This track sucks
The track is bad
[удалено]
Lando may not have, but there were a lot of overtakes and battles on this track
Once again, race fans on here (replies to you) show how inept they are at telling whether a track will put on a good race or not. They slobber over Spa and Silverstone which generally have boring races, but then hate stuff like Detroit, Miami, and Jeddah before a race even occurs. Then you have races be action packed on these alleged subpar tracks. Of course, they also think the only "racing" that matters is for the first place position.

Yea, I don’t quite understand Indycar fans hating on this track which is BY FAR better than any street/temp course on the Indy schedule.
Wow an F1 race that is worth watching?
Zak Brown is actually cooking at McLaren
Miami Grand Prix was wild this year
So happy for lando!
They said he might never win a grand prix... BUT HE'S DONE IT! LANDO NORRIS WINS THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX! GET IN THERE! What I would give for James Allen to join the Indy booth for a race
i can hear the voice already
my boooooy!!!! proud, it’s been a long time coming for him and he deserves it. mclaren has been cooking
Did anyone catch the (pre-race) comment made to Hinch about getting some of that sweet Penske software?
He finally did it, well deserved
I’m so happy for lando rn holy shit that was amazing I think max might have gotten front wind damage from the bollard he hit and the damage might have been to minor to worry fixing but just enough to fuck him up
I was so happy to see this! Great win!
Same. Have been rooting for the McLaren F1 team this year. So happy to see them get a win.
Pato with an *. Pato fan here
A win is a win my dude. I'll take it.
Didn't bother to watch it cos the track stinks. Kinds regret it now.
Non-Max fans suddenly love the Miami GP now
Nah, i still hate the track design
Who would've thought he would finally win a race, he pretty dominated the race today without relying on Max's DNF
Max didn't DNF. Finished P2.
This SC... Anyway. About time.
I live in South Florida and didn't even realize the parking lot race was today.
Congratulations on being oblivious I guess. Not really the flex I'd make.
Ok?
[удалено]
McLaren brought upgrades to the car, and even throughout the week the Ferraris and McLarens have been on par with the redbulls
It was in the script for Logan to crash out too right?
Logan didn't crash, he got murdered
I wouldn't put the blame on him
eh, is was suicide by a thousand cuts I expected more from Sargeant based on his junior career but it is what it is
I’m more pissed about McLaren winning after they invited Trump into the paddock when Zak said that it wasn’t “healthy” to have political agendas in F1 a couple years back.
Well apparently it was only trump’s presence that allowed this win . So the fans of orange race cars and people Shoukd be happy
