Their recent form couldn't be in much greater contrast, but both Red Bull and McLaren will arrive at this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix under extreme pressure. McLaren's Lando Norris reduced Max Verstappen's Drivers' Championship lead to 62 points, but it was far from a perfect weekend for the Brit last time out at the Italian Grand Prix.
The Brit sent out mixed messages after the race as he said that Piastri's move could have easily caused a crash and that he would 'love' his team's full backing, but that it was a 'tough one'. Stella and Brown both said that McLaren would review the incident, while the former hinted for the first time, citing Verstappen's stunning drop-off in form, that the team want to 'give it a go at the championship with Lando'.
