🗣 'We know we've had a very tough season, we found it difficult.' Lando Norris says McLaren's fifth position in the championship was the maximum the team deserved to achieve after a tough 2022 F1 season:

, which produced a less reliable but still faster car, and the Woking team wasn't helped by Daniel Ricciardo's well-documented struggles.

"I guess you feel very disappointed when there's a shot at P4 and you feel like you could have had it. But we've had one bad weekend of reliability, Alpine have had four or five, they've had a quicker car the majority of the year. "We've just started too far behind in the beginning of the season, so hopefully we can start much higher up next year, make the development, make the progress we did this season and we'll be much better off."Norris admitted McLaren's car performance"hasn't been good enough" this year but praised the progress it has made across operational areas, such as turning its pitstop weakness into a strength over the past few seasons.

I disagree with Lando. They lost fourth position because of Ricciardo’s poor (very poor) pace and Alonso’s reliability problems.

Either way, 5th place for a top team is not good reading meaning Mclaren are many decades away from the promised land and all this came about due to AMG pulling out as a partner which AMG engines McLaren had to go back to. As uncle Ron famously said, you can't win as a customer
