“I think you have to have a big ego in business and in sports but I use mine to want to protect myself from failure. Ego makes me not want to fail, it's a motivator, my ego doesn't want me to be laughed at or labeled a failure.” Zak Brown CEO of McLaren Racing The 2025 F1 season is winding down with three races left to go and McLaren has already won its 2nd Consecutive Constructors' Championship with the chance for their drivers to finish 1st and 2nd. At the helm of all this success is CEO Zak Brown, a high school dropout from California that pursued his passion for motor sports and turned around McLaren Racing. On this episode of The Pivot Podcast, hosts Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder sit down with Zak Brown for an unfiltered conversation on leadership, risk-taking, and the relentless pursuit of speed—both on and off the track. Zak pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to transform one of the most iconic organizations in motorsport, from rebuilding McLaren's Formula 1 program to cultivating a culture where innovation thrives, no blame is placed and a team first mantra. He talks candidly about navigating high-pressure decisions, the realities of competing at the sport's highest level, and how he balances business strategy with his pure passion for racing. The conversation amps up as Zak talks about Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri's fierce but healthy internal rivalry, explaining how their push to beat each other is exactly what drives the team closer to the front of the grid. With only a few races left, McLaren is eyeing a 1st, 2nd finish for the 2025 season, hoping to prove doubters wrong with a drama-free relationship between his two drivers that sit atop the sport- a no favoritism, no fighting approach. From the dynamics inside the garage to the strategic vision for the future, Zak gives rare insight into what it takes to manage two hungry, elite-level drivers chasing the same trophy. Zak dives into the inspiration behind his new book, sharing the lessons, setbacks, and bold decisions that shaped his journey from young racing enthusiast to the executive steering one of motorsport's most iconic teams. He reveals the mindset shifts that fueled McLaren's resurgence and why embracing risk is often the only real path forward. From bold driver signings to the future of electric racing and what winning means in today's F1 landscape, this episode offers a rare look at the mindset of a global sports executive who isn't afraid to bet big. Whether you're a Formula 1 fanatic, a business leader, or someone inspired by reinvention, Zak Brown's journey shows exactly what it means to pivot with conviction.

McLaren-CEO Zak Brown liet zich onlangs kritisch uit over de 'arrogantie' van Max Verstappen. In zijn nieuwe boek haalt de Amerikaan nog eens uit naar de viervoudig wereldkampioen. Zo zouden de teamleden van Red Bull Racing bang zijn voor de in Nederlander geboren coureur.

McLaren Racing's Formula 1 team was in a period of decline and suffering record-low sponsorship revenue before Zak Brown took over as CEO. Shortly before McLaren's second consecutive win at the Constructors' Championship, Brown sat down for an interview with Fortune's Diane Brady and Kristin Stoller. He shared how he was able to turn around the culture at McLaren with a “no-blame” policy and his approach to managing the fastest racing drivers in the world.
McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown returns to High Performance to reveal the truth behind McLaren's remarkable comeback, from financial crisis and public doubt to rebuilding one of Formula One's most iconic teams.He opens up to Jake and Damian about stepping into chaos, restoring belief through culture and communication, and the power of difficult conversations in transforming leadership. Zak also reflects on his unconventional journey from a rebellious kid in California to leading a global motorsport powerhouse, and why loyalty, trust, and humility remain at the heart of his success.This is an unfiltered conversation about resilience, reinvention, and what it really takes to lead under pressure, proof that true high performance starts with people, not power.

Norris et Piastri peuvent-ils se retrouver dans la situation de Alonso et Hamilton en 2007 ? Faut-il que les papayes fassent un choix pour se prémunir du retour de Verstappen ? Avant le GP du Brésil, l'équipe de chroniqueurs de Pole Position vous propose une grande preview pour l'avant-dernier format sprint de la saison.

In episode 311 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked back in with journalist Christian Hewgill. We first checked in with Christian in December 2022, in JCIP #160! At that point in time, he had recently left the BBC where he worked on BBC Radio 1's Newsbeat programme as a reporter and presenter for five years, and was working freelance. In 2025, he is still working freelance but in 2023, his old work colleague, Radio 1 presenter, DJ and superstar Greg James messaged him to ask him to form a super-team of presenters and co-host a new Formula One podcast, ‘The Fast and The Curious'. Alongside Greg and sports journalist Betty Glover, they began carving out a unique space in the F1 podcast space, being able to cater to F1 aficionados and new, casual fans, young and old alike. Since then, the podcast has exploded in popularity, with the three of them hosting live shows at F1 races at Monaco and Silverstone, securing interviews with the top stars in Formula One, including drivers like Lewis Hamilton and George Russell and Team Principals like McClaren's Zak Brown and now worldwide star and former Team Principal for Haas, Gunther Steiner. As well as this new adventure, Christian co-hosts another F1 podcast, ‘F1 Explains', which is aimed at helping people learn more about the sport – and is an official Formula 1 podcast. In Part 2 of his journey, we discuss this massive change in Christian's journalism career. We talk about how he's adapted to the increased level of fame he now has, some of his favourite episodes, his relationship with Betty and Greg, his growth as a presenter and the reality of running a podcast, even one as big as FAC. For Christian's continued mental health journey, it hasn't been as plain sailing in the last three years. First of all, in 2023, his relationship with his then partner of 10 years ended, which naturally caused a lot of mental health difficulties in adapting to life without that person in his life. Then, also in 2023, Christian's mum was diagnosed with dementia, which took hold very quickly, and his dad had to take on a new role from purely loving husband to full-time carer for her too. In addition, Christian's dad also had a heart attack, which naturally caused Christian a lot of stress and upheaval. Thankfully, Christian is now in a new relationship, and engaged! However, his mum's dementia has remained difficult to deal with on a weekly basis. We discuss the grief he has experienced for the loss of the person his mum was, the relationship breakup, his dad's heart attack and his relationship with his dad now, following his mum's dementia diagnosis.

Sergio Perez believes his former team-mate Max Verstappen will still come back to win the title. Perez believes McLaren are dropping too many points between themselves. Meanwhile McLaren's Zak Brown says that the team will never play favourites, even if that does come at the cost of losing the drivers' title to Max Verstappen this season.
Met nog vier Formule 1-weeekenden te gaan in 2025 heeft McLaren laten weten niet te zullen kiezen tussen Lando Norris en Oscar Piastri. Volgens Andrea Stella en Zak Brown gaat dat simpelweg niet, zelfs niet als het betekent dat het ‘2007-scenario' dreigt, waarin een lachende derde met de wereldtitel aan de haal gaat. Max Verstappen zou ditmaal die lachende derde kunnen zijn, maar benadrukt dat Red Bull dan wel ieder raceweekend perfect moet zijn en ook dat hij wellicht nog enig geluk nodig heeft. Jos Verstappen heeft zich intussen uitgelaten over de ‘vreemde' vormdip van Piastri, al verduidelijkt laatstgenoemde dat er van sabotage of technische problemen geen enkele sprake is. Ronald Vording behandelt het uitgebreid in een nieuwe aflevering van de F1-update, net zoals gesprekken over een mogelijk verplichte tweestopper in de Formule 1. Verder aandacht voor het Mexicaanse statement over Liam Lawson en het incident met de marshals, Lewis Hamilton die het gebrek aan transparantie bij de stewards laakt en een herstructurering bij Aston Martin richting 2026.
McLaren have won back-to-back Constructors' titles for the first time since the early ‘90s. Just eight years ago, in 2017, they finished second to last, so how exactly have they transformed into World Champions since then? Speaking to Tom Clarkson at the McLaren Technology Centre, CEO Zak Brown and Team Principal Andrea Stella outline how they've masterminded McLaren's remarkable turnaround together, revealing just how desperate the team's situation was at the start of this journey, and how they're planning to sustain their recent success in the years to come. But in the immediate future, their eyes are on the next prize, as they chase a first Drivers' World Championship since Lewis Hamilton won in 2008. Going into the final four rounds of the 2025 season, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are separated by just one point at the top of the standings. Zak and Andrea discuss how the pair have evolved during their time at McLaren, criticism of their approach to this title fight, and whether they'll have any regrets should Max Verstappen beat Lando and Oscar to the crown.

Harry Benjamin, former F1 driver Jolyon Palmer, F1 journalist Rebecca Clancy and the BBC's F1 correspondent Andrew Benson preview the Mexico City Grand Prix. Is Max Verstappen in the title fight? And where are things going wrong for McLaren? We hear from their CEO Zak Brown.
Oscar Piastri en Lando Norris vielen allebei uit in de Sprint voor de F1 Grand Prix van de Verenigde Staten door een crash bij de start samen met Nico Hülkenberg en Fernando Alonso. Zak Brown wees naar Hülkenberg als de schuldige en bestempelde de Kick Sauber-coureur zelfs als "amateuristisch". De McLaren-CEO heeft nu echter zijn excuses aangeboden.
No episódio de hoje, falamos sobre a Fórmula 1 nos Estados Unidos, mais um evento Sprint no COTA que a Red Bull soube aproveitar com maestria, enquanto Max Verstappen ganhou pontos “gratuitos” deixados pelos pilotos da McLaren. Enquanto a dupla de Woking se obliterava no sábado, Zak Brown decidiu que a culpa era dele e ele colocaria em Nico Hülkenberg – um dos competidores que estava apenas fazendo o dele no evento.Tudo isso e muito mais no episódio de hoje do BPCast.Dá o play e vem com a gente!
Max Verstappen heeft zaterdag een dubbelslag geslagen door zowel de Formule 1-sprintrace in Austin te winnen als ook pole-position voor de Grand Prix te pakken. De Nederlander was niet helemaal tevreden over het gevoel tijdens de sprint, al hoopt Red Bull dat de race pace na aanpassingen aan de set-up is verbeterd. George Russell kwam overigens met een andere theorie over het verschil tussen Red Bulls kracht over één ronde en het mindere gevoel in de race. Ronald Vording bespreekt het uitgebreid in een nieuwe F1-update vanuit de paddock. Daarin natuurlijk ook alle aandacht voor het dramatische scenario van McLaren. Oscar Piastri en Lando Norris bleven puntloos na contact, waarna Zak Brown de schuld in eerste instantie bij Nico Hülkenberg legde. Die woorden nam hij uiteindelijk terug, waarna Andrea Stella heeft laten weten dat er na het weekend nog een 'review' van het moment volgt. Tijdens de kwalificatie was McLaren overigens ook nog niet je van het, vooral Piastri worstelde. Tot slot aandacht voor de nogal opmerkelijke actie van Lance Stroll en Yuki Tsunoda die zich beklaagde over Liam Lawson.
Mercedes heeft bekend gemaakt dat George Russell en Andrea Kimi Antonelli ook volgend jaar voor het Duitse team zullen rijden. Tot wanneer hun contracten lopen heeft Mercedes niet bekendgemaakt, maar er wordt vermoed dat Russell een een meerjarige deal heeft.

En este episodio abordaremos el asunto entre el piloto español Alex Palou y el director ejecutivo de McLaren Zak Brown. Y es que en estos días se lleva a cabo un juicio, donde se presume el "incumplimiento de contrato" por parte Alex Palou. El 4 veces campeón de Indy Car firmó un contrato en 2023 con McLaren para unirse al equipo de la F1 del 2024 al 2026. Sin embargo, fue descubriendo que las promesas de Zak Brown, eran sólo eso, promesas que carecían de un genuino interés. Por lo tanto Palou decidió continuar con el euipo de Chip Ganassi.No olvides regalarnos tu like, suscribirte y recomendarnos.
According to Corriere Dello Sport, Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur had a heated exchange in Singapore with the team's head of track engineering Matteo Togninalli. Meanwhile Alex Palou has alleged that Zak Brown blocked a move for the Spaniard to sign for Racing Bulls midway through 2023. Palou told the UK High Court that Red Bull were interested in getting Palou into their second F1 team, until a phone call from Zak Brown to Dr Helmut Marko shut everything down.#f1 #f1news #ferrarif1 #mclarenf1
Frei nach dem neuen Album von Taylor Swift gehts vor dem Großen Preis der USA natürlich um das, was uns zwischen den beiden WM-Kontrahenten Oscar Piastri und Lando Norris erwartet, denn nach dem Großen Preis von Singapur haben die Diskussionen um den Umgang von McLaren mit diesem Duell nicht wirklich aufgehört. Auch Kevin Scheuren und Dennis Lewandowski haben sich weitere Gedanken dazu gemacht, auch darüber, ob sich eine Exit-Strategie für Piastri vor allem gerade auftut. Mit Blick auf das Rennwochenende in Austin aber stellt sich natürlich die Frage, wer sich hinter dem neuen Konstrukteursweltmeister einreiht? Max Verstappen? George Russell?

Diferentemente de Monza, a McLaren optou por não interceder na corrida após o toque entre Lando Norris e Oscar Piastri em Singapura. O australiano se sentiu injustiçado e, no final da corrida, desligou o carro (e consequentemente o rádio) quando o chefe de equipe, Zak Brown, transmitia uma mensagem comemorando o título da equipe.Apresentação: Cassio Politi e Lito Cavalcanti.Veja as melhores análises da Fórmula 1 no site The Race Brasil: https://www.youtube.com/@wearetherace_br.Inscreva-se no canal do Lito Cavalcanti no YouTube e participe toda terça-feira, às 20h (horário de Brasília), da live: https://www.youtube.com/LitoCavalcanti.

Alex Dunne just walked away from McLaren...and it's made them mad!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren has parted ways with rookie standout Alex Dunne before the F2 season for 2025 is over. Huh? The fallout hits every corner of the grid. Dunne isn't a slowpoke either, he's in Formula 2's top 5 and ahead of all the Red Bull juniors. However, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri locked in for years, there was obviously no room upwards...and Dunne was done waiting.

This week James Allen delves into a topic that has always fascinated him - the way F1 teams and drivers present themselves – in other words their identity. The F1 season launch at the O2, London in February showed which teams had figured out their identity and those who hadn't. F1 teams go to endless lengths to refine the tiniest details on their car to gain performance, but could they be doing much more to make the cars and drivers look good to fans and sponsors? Is an F1 car livery just a blank canvas to showcase a team's sponsors, or should it say much more than that about the team? How teams show up and what they stand for is really important. Think of the change McLaren went through when Zak Brown took over and switched to papaya orange or when Mercedes switched from Silver Arrows to black cars. We explore this in the company of celebrated designer Nick Downes, who has been creating F1 car liveries and logos for over 30 years, including the iconic yellow “snake” livery for Jordan in the late 1990s, the Jaguars in the early 2000s and more recently for Williams.

McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown
Send us a textThis week, Wesley Smith returns to the podcast to take an overview of the current Formula 1 season coming out of the summer break. It's been McLaren's season thus far, but there's a lot of highly competitive action throughout the tight midfield. We talk about all of it, including the rookies, the changes we'd like to see in the cars, and even a few tracks we'd like to see make a comeback. Additionally, we examine the differences between Lando and Oscar, and ponder who would be the best to have a beer with (and why it's probably Zak Brown).

McLaren is sitting on a powder keg of performance and politics.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe orange squad's constructors defense depends on a fragile peace between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri...and for it to last for YEARS. How? Equal-status team orders, a record-breaking Mastercard deal securing the team's future and the management's hands-off approach, THAT is what ideally keeps both drivers pushing flat out without taking each other out ALL the way to Abu Dhabi. The two-alpha gamble similar to historic partnerships like Senna and Prost/Hamilton and Rosberg and Zak Brown's desire to outshine Ron Dennis.#f1 #mclarenf1 #formula1 #formulaone #mclaren #mclarenf1team #landonorris #oscarpiastri #piastri #norris #f1latest #f1news #f12025 #formula12025 #f1updates #f1drama What's REALLY Going On With McLaren?https://youtu.be/o1PSTnqVjLYCan't watch the ladder?

For a while out there it looked as though Charles Leclerc and Ferrari would spoil the day of McLaren-Mercedes. As the wind blew from the west, rather than the east, Leclerc had taken the pole in the closing seconds of Q3. And, from the start, he appeared to be in control: Oscar Piastri sat in his mirrors but Lando Norris fell back in the wake of George Russell's Mercedes. Then, almost inevitably, it went wrong: Charles stopped early for his second set of Hard Pirellis and was thereafter never in the hunt: with floor damage, his Ferrari was over a second-a-lap off the pace. It then became a straight fight between the two McLaren drivers, with Zak Brown allowing them to race to the finish. Piastri, on a two-stop strategy, had the performance advantage - but Norris, on a one-stopper, had the advantage of track position. In this podcast, Peter looks back at the key elements not only of that race to the chequered flag but also of the weekend as a whole - at the amazing pole of Charles Leclerc, the dismal pace of Red Bull and the wretched weekend of Sir Lewis Hamilton.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Zak Brown didn't graduate high school – he was thrown out for fighting - but he loved sport. He watched his first Formula 1 race when he was 10, and became captivated by the cars, sound and speed. An appearance on a teen version of Wheel of Fortune, aged 13, won him some Cartier watches that he would later pawn for $1000, using the money to buy a go-kart and launch his racing career. But when it became clear he wouldn't reach the heights he hoped for, he had a big decision to make. He tells Evan Davis about his path to becoming boss of one of the biggest names in motorsport.
