McLaren praised for getting the ‘most difficult thing in F1’ right after Lando Norris win

world champion Jenson Button has heaped praise on McLaren for nailing their correlation between wind tunnel and on track performance after their win at the Miami Grand Prix.While Norris inherited the lead due to the Safety Car, he was comfortably the fastest driver out on track, reeling off fastest laps with ease.A number of substantial upgrade packages, starting with Austria last year, has propelled McLaren from the midfield to regular podium finisher, to now race winner.

“The correlation seems to be amazing at McLaren,” Button said. “The upgrades they had last year made a massive difference - it did what it said on the tin. That’s the most difficult thing in F1. “Hopefully it’s not track dependent here. Very different tracks, the next couple. I do hope it’s going to continue.”McLaren introduced a significant upgrade in Miami, with rivals Ferrari set to do the same at Imola as they look to close the gap to Red Bull.

“It’s very different from the way of thinking going into a race weekend knowing they’ve got that challenge from McLaren. The strategy is a little bit different. They’ve got to be on their toes the whole time.”
