The key difference between the performances of McLaren’s two driver🐠s has been spotted.

McLaren have possessed Formula 1’s fastest car for roughly the past year, charging past Red Bull to win the constructors꧃’ championship last yea🗹r and clinging onto it with an iron grip this year.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri is also three points clear of teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris at the top of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 standings.

Max Verstappen trai♐ls the championship leader by 25 points and left last weekend’s F1 Spanish Grꦕand Prix angrily implying he might not be able to challenge for the title.

But♉ even N🐼orris is often struggling to contend with Piastri, who has won five out of nine grands prix in 2025.

“Hi💙s challenge is to f🐼ind the weaknesses,” Julianne Cerasoli advised Norris about his teammate on the F1 Nation podcast.

“Because there were weaknesses in the past.

“The end of last year was important for Oscar because would aꦚlways hear ‘you are always getting bette🥀r’ but, at the end, he wasn’t happy.

“He ha🔯d to dig deep in the winter break to understand what he was doing wrong, especially in rac💮e pace.

“Lando is very good with race pace so Oscar is learning quick🦹er.

“It is hard, at the moment, to find weaknesses.

“Wh🔯eel-to-wheel, he is good. Qualifying, he is good. He’s always calm, always settled, he finds solutions.

“It is hard for Lando.”

Jesús Balseiro recalled: “Rem🦩ember the same place a year ago, Lando ♐was on pole but he lost the first corner.

“He lost a race which could have been McLaren’s. We thoug🐬ht the Red Bull was still the dominant car but later we learned that it wasn’t.

“Oscar doesn’t give🔯 any room, he is flawless weeꦿkend after weekend.

“Maybe that’s the big difference between him and Lando.
“Lando used to make enough mistakes to leav𝓰e the door open to Max.

“So far, with Oscar, we find a flawless driver.”

Cerasoli pointed out: “Lando nee🧸ds to up his game in qua🍎lifying.

“If he qualifies first, engineers tell us that bein🌞g in free air🍨 gives you three tenths.

“Three tentꦅhs against his teammate means he will win the race.

“He ne⛦eds to qualify better. Then he doesn’༒t have to play any other games.”

Norris qualified on pole position at ౠthe F1 Monaco Grand Prix and duly converted it𒊎 into a race win.

In Spain, last weekend, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:he bemoaned e𝓡rrors which cost him in qualifying.

McLaren have rꩵacked up three 1-2 finishes this season already.

Even amid the flexi-wing clampdown in Spain, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Norris noted it changed nothing.

The challenge for McLaren may be how to appease both drivers🐼 in ♍a title battle.

Andrea Stella insists their 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:pre-race de🌜briefs h🅺ave not changed despite their drivers both sitting first and sec🐻ond in the standings.
