Formula One: Australian Daniel Ricciardo has returned from injury to Formula One action with an entertaining demo run in Nashville.
McLaren is fielding the most rapidly improving car on the grid and is now a frequent contender for the front row and podium.
McLaren is right to revel in these good times. The team knows better than most that these moments can be fleeting, but there’s confidence that finally it’s on the right track back to the top.As McLaren zeros in on developing its first truly competitive car in a decade, so too will the battle to lead the team become increasingly competitive.
“You don’t see these kinds of talents in Formula 1 every day,” McLaren boss Andrea Stella said, per the F1 website. “He is an absolute reference even if he is a rookie.” The last months of this year’s season might be ones we reflect on as having titled McLaren on its axis.Sometimes you don’t realise the centre of gravity has shifted until its too late, but it’s a well-told story in Formula 1.
As the driver clearly getting more from the car in the brand-new turbo-hybrid era, the Australian had won the team over by the middle of the year. Vettel ejected for Ferrari. At the end of 2017 Verstappen was offered a long-term big-money deal to “build a team around him”, in the words of principal Christian Horner.
“First win, earlier than mine,” the still winless Norris said unprompted in his post-sprint interview. In race trim there was little to separate them, with Piastri’s better starts enough to get the job done.
