Acabó el fin de semana al sprint en Miami y, aunque no nos gustara mucho el circuito ni el formato del fin de semana, estuvo bastante bien. Desde el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos alegramos de que, al menos, hubiera muchos líos en las dos carreras, polémicas, grandes adelantamientos, condiciones mixtas y muchos de los ingredientes de un gran fin de semana de carreras. No es oro todo lo que reluce Bien es cierto, que buena parte de la carrera del domingo fue bastante lenta y la estrategia tampoco ayudó a mejorar el espectáculo; ni la llegada de la lluvia, que no ocurrió nunca. Pero a mí el fin de semana me dejó buen sabor de boca, la verdad. Cuarta victoria de Piastri en seis carreras, líder sólido del Mundial: ¿cómo es la situación en McLaren? Porque el año pasado Zak Brown hablaba de que comenzaba la era de Norris, pero está siendo, por ahora (aunque es pronto, sin duda), la de Piastri. En cualquier caso, si hay que sacar conclusiones después de 6 pruebas: ¿ahora sí asusta McLaren, con altas temperaturas en pista? La Sprint, la carrera del sábado. Al ser un fin de semana con formato Sprint, el viernes mismo tuvimos acción de la buena y vaya si nos divertimos, sobre todo cuando vimos a Kimi Antonelli sacarse la Pole para Mercedes. Tanto él como su padre estaban que no se lo creían,… aunque Toto Wolff sí que estaba contento con lo que esperaba de su pupilo. Valoración de la primera pole de Antonelli: ¿es el resultado del crecimiento sin presión de un gran talento? Sin embargo, el sábado le superó su falta de experiencia: en la primera curva ya había perdido la posición, de una forma un poco “poco limpia”, pero la había perdido y no hubo sanciones por parte de los comisarios. La carrera, con Safety Car incluido por choque de Alonso, la ganó Norris. Domingo, la lluvia que no llegó. Ya en la noche (en Europa) del sábado pudimos disfrutar de la clasificación para la carrera larga, la del domingo. Y esta vez la pole se la llevó Verstappen, que saca de su coche - que parece más un coche de clasificación que de carrera - lo que no tiene. Aunque su compañero tampoco lo hizo mal. Pero, centrándonos en el domingo, tuvimos mucha acción… en la primera parte de la carrera. En la salida, Verstappen 1º, echa fuera a Norris, que pierde posiciones (6º). Antonelli se coloca 2º. Pero la posición le dura poco: Piastri lo pasa y, desde la vuelta 8 a la 14, tenemos una preciosa lucha Piastri-Verstappen, con defensas monumentales por parte de Verstappen con un coche, objetivamente, peor. También tuvimos una gran remontada de Norris de 6º, y pasando a los Mercedes, hasta llegar a 2º, pero a mucha distancia de Piastri. También hay que destacar lo que le costó a Norris pasar a Verstappen (entre las vueltas 15 y 18) frente a su compañero de equipo. Está claro que es rápido, pero le faltan muchas cosas (salidas el año pasado, adelantamientos éste, errores), y así le va a costar trabajo convertirse en Campeón del Mundo, por mucho que tenga el mejor coche - que también tiene su compañero de equipo y que no perdona.

And will his mindset change now he's the one with a target on his back? Lando Norris joins the pod after recovering from his crash in qualifying to climb from P10 to P4. He reveals what he did differently before the race to relax and why he puts so much pressure on himself to perform, while McLaren CEO Zak Brown explains why their rivals may not be as far behind as the Constructor Standings lead us to believe. Plus, after Max Verstappen's sensational pole lap and P2 finish, are we seeing signs of a Red Bull recovery? Is Max Verstappen still capable of winning a fifth title in a row? And should Red Bull focus all their energy on improving their 2025 car rather than 2026? Also on the agenda: how did Charles Leclerc secure Ferrari's first Grand Prix podium of the season? Where does the data suggest Lewis Hamilton is struggling with the car? Why were Mercedes slower in the race than in qualifying?

Zak Brown is the CEO of McLaren Racing, the second-oldest Formula 1 team. When he joined in 2016, McLaren was in a difficult spot — lagging behind in race wins, sponsorships, and morale. Brown set out to transform the team by elevating their in-house racing technology and fostering active collaboration. He led the team to win the F1 Constructors’ Championship last year, their first one after more than 25 years. In this episode, Oz visits McLaren's headquarters to speak with Brown about how the team made their comeback, and what they’re doing to keep their edge this season. Plus, he shares his candid reflections on #LandoNoWins and Netflix’s Drive to Survive.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sailing a ship is effortless when seas are calm and the wind is blowing in the right direction. And in business, it's easier to feel confident and in control when conditions are idyllic, profits are high and growth is steady. But what do you do when a storm hits? How do you turn things around and not only weather the storm, but emerge stronger? Turnarounds are challenging - in fact, within business, 70% of them fail. And the weight of expectation can test even the most experienced leaders and teams. So, what can we learn about the mechanics of managing a successful turnaround from the people who've done it? That's what we're exploring with Zak Brown, CEO at McLaren Racing, and Pauline Biddle, partner in M&A at Deloitte UK, in this episode of The Green Room as we ask: What does it take to turn things around? Tune in to find out: The essential first step all leaders must take when beginning a turnaround. How cultural change affects commercial success – and vice versa.

Zak Brown onthulde afgelopen week op verrassende wijze dat Max Verstappen na dit seizoen Red Bull Racing zou verlaten en naar het team van Mercedes zou gaan. Een behoorlijk statement, zou je zeggen — en daarom is maar eens nagevraagd bij de teambaas van Red Bull wat hij hier precies van weet. Christian Horner slaat terug en dropt een klein bommetje, want de Brown zou namelijk zelf recent contact hebben gezocht met een Red Bull-rijder.

Send us a textIn this interview with @peterwindsor we react to the Australian Grand Prix and discuss why Max Verstappen would have beaten Lando Norris in equal machinery. Why @peterwindsor is disappointed in Oscar Piastri's performance in Australia and what this might mean for the F1 driver's championship 2025. Should Oscar Piastri have been able to capitalise on Lando Norris' mistake in the wet like Verstappen did and how will this affect the dynamic at Mclaren for the rest of the season. @peterwindsor discusses why he would've leveraged team orders like Zak Brown did during the Australian Grand Prix. We discuss the mayhem at Ferrari and why he feels that Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton was disrespectful in the way they spoke to their race engineers. We discuss what Ferrari can do going forward to improve and why F1 teams are doing rookies a disservice. We argue about the extent of McLaren's car dominance and whether they will have more time in hand at the Chinese Grand Prix this weekend.- become a member -https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxyxUe_jRskL8xH7n580Ecw/join- where to find me -Twitter: https://twitter.com/CxmeronCcBusiness Email : cxmeronf1@gmail.com#f1 #formula1 #f1news #f12024 #verstappen #norris #landonorris #hamilton #podcast #mclaren #redbull #ferrari
McLaren heeft de verwachtingen waargemaakt door de volledige eerste startrij voor de Formule 1 Grand Prix van Australië te pakken. Waar heeft het team van Zak Brown terrein gewonnen ten opzichte van Max Verstappen en waar heeft Lando Norris zijn teamgenoot Oscar Piastri precies afgetroefd? Marije Dijkstra en Ronald Vording bespreken het uitgebreid in een nieuwe aflevering van de F1-update. Daarin ook aandacht voor de reactie van Verstappen, die de derde startplek in Melbourne (waar Helmut Marko op inzette) vooraf niet haalbaar achtte. En hoe valt het tegenvallende optreden van Ferrari eigenlijk te verklaren? Het komt eveneens aan bod in de video hierboven, net zoals de ijzersterke optredens van Yuki Tsunoda, Alexander Albon in de Williams en Garbriel Bortoleto. Tot slot aandacht voor Andrea Kimi Antonelli en Liam Lawson, die er namens respectievelijk Mercedes en Red Bull Racing allebei al in Q1 uit zijn gevlogen.
There’s two guests for this special Australian Grand Prix-view. First up Guenther Steiner. He’s back on Rusty’s Garage ahead of the F1 season opener.

How difficult it is to manage two No. 1 drivers….will Zak Brown end up with a few more greys in 2025? Plus the hype around Hamilton. There’s so much excitement about Lewis and Ferrari. Does Steiner think Formula 1’s most famous team can give the 7-time World Champion what he needs for more success? And after the break Rusty chats to Australian Grand Prix CEO Travis Auld at Albert Park. What’s new for ‘25 now it’s back to round 1 on the calendar?

McLaren F1's massive Oscar Piastri deal could backfire spectacularlyClimb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren just stunned the Formula 1 community by dropping a major announcement about Oscar Piastri's future, securing the Australian driver until potentially 2028 with a jaw-dropping pay rise that matches teammate Lando Norris. But is this groundbreaking deal a strategic masterstroke or a ticking time bomb? With Red Bull's Christian Horner openly praising Piastri, many are questioning if McLaren's Zak Brown acted hastily, sparking fresh intrigue around Formula 1's driver market dynamics. Could equal salaries and the "team-first" approach actually cause internal friction, especially if Norris starts feeling undervalued or uncertain about his future role within the team?Meanwhile, cryptic hints from Norris himself about Ferrari indicate that even McLaren's golden boy might already be eyeing his next big career move. As the stakes rise, rival teams and drivers will undoubtedly watch closely, waiting for any cracks to show. Are McLaren's equal driver policies destined for greatness or a recipe for chaos? Watch now to find out what this means for Oscar Piastri, Lando Norris, and the future of McLaren in Formula 1.McLaren STUNS F1 as Piastri equals Norrishttps://youtu.be/NqaVDEVIUdE

Como ya se vio en el primer episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Formula 1, el panorama está ya calentito en la máxima categoría. Y es que ya tenemos las presentaciones de los monoplazas encima. Y, además, el Gran Circo no deja de dar noticias. Esta semana empiezan. Esta misma semana veremos ya la presentación del Williams y del Haas, viernes y domingo. Así que veremos ya el monoplaza de uno de los dos españoles en la parrilla, cosa que no está nada mal. En Haas, por cierto, ya han anunciado que se comprometen a dar instrucciones claras a los nuevos pilotos Ocon y Bearman para evitar disputas internas. Y en junio, tenemos película. Podemos ser fans del actor, o no, pero seguro que todos los aficionados iremos al cine a ver la nueva película de Brad Pitt, aunque no sea por verle a él, sino a aquellos a los que sí seguimos y conocemos bien. Como a Guenther Steiner… Eso sí, todavía habrá que esperar hasta junio, hasta casi el Gran Premio de Austria, para poder verla. Pero después de todo lo que vimos en las pistas la temporada pasada, estamos deseando ver el resultado. Ecclestone, Hamilton y Alonso. Nuestro querido y añorado Bernie Ecclestone vuelve a ser noticia. Y es que ha avisado a Ferrari de que Hamilton “no durará más de dos años”. Pero el que parece que dura y no tiene fin es Alonso. Rob Smedley ha hablado sobre el piloto:"La personalidad que ves no es la que encuentras en elequipo. Fernando es muy competitivo, un auténtico activo para el equipo. Quiere ganar siempre, a cualquier precio. Eso hace que sea alguien a quien deseas tener a tu lado. Lo necesitas desesperadamente en tu equipo porque es tan duro y tan intenso que contagia a la gente de ese deseo de estar delante”. Y eso dice mucho de un piloto con su edad, al que muchos, ya hace mucho tiempo, daban por acabado y que está dando noticias, espectáculo y mucha esperanza a su equipo. Sulayem se explica y Zack Brown habla de las reglas. Aparte de hablar de que Pérez, que salió de Red Bull a final del año pasado, podría estar en la órbita de Cadillac para 2026 y buscando asiento para los 24 horas de Le Mans, también hay que hablar de reglas, a través de los ojos de Sulayem y de los de Zack Brown, CEO de McLaren. Ha dicho Sulayem (a propósito de la normativa sobre lenguaje): "Nuestros pilotos y nuestros embajadores tienen que salir y enviar mensajes claros. ¿Vamos a permitirles que utilicen malas palabras? Tenemos que respetar. La FIA se basa en el respeto, ése es nuestro fundamento y así seguirá siendo". Ha ido más allá, hablando de las normas para con los pilotos: ”¿Cómo trato a los pilotos? Como a mis hijos y a mis hijas. Sinceramente, los trato con pasión, con amor. Los trato con comprensión. He estado allí. Quiero que triunfen. Pero también la disciplina es muy importante para ellos. No estamos aquí para castigar a nadie. Sólo estamos aquí para hacer un buen deporte. Dar ejemplo en el deporte es muy importante. Si sigues adelante y dices malas palabras, entonces tus hijos no querrán ir allí. Los padres dirán: 'no vayas a esto'. Si quieres decir esas palabras, las dices donde quieras. No es asunto nuestro. Pero no utilicen la plataforma de la FIA para estos incidentes innecesarios. No tienes por qué ser de ninguna cultura para aceptarlo, es la naturaleza. Tienen que usar su sentido común y saber qué está mal y qué está bien”. Zak Brown, por su parte, tiene su punto de vista sobre las reglas, aunque a él le interesan más las deportivas: "Creo que las regulaciones son demasiadas. Sabemos quién llega primero al vértice, pero no hemos pensado en lo que sucede si no puede hacer el giro. Creo que Max hizo un gran trabajo al comprender exactamente lo que dicen las reglas"; "Me gustaría que diéramos un paso atrás, que relajáramos las reglas, que tuviéramos comisarios a tiempo completo, gente que haya estado en las carreras y que pueda tomar una decisión un poco más subjetiva sobre si estuvo bien o mal… aunque siempre habrá momentos en que se equivoquen”.

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel are joined by McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown for episode 250 of The Intercooler podcast. Having orchestrated one of the most remarkable turnarounds F1 has ever seen, taking one of the slowest teams on the grid in early 2023 to the constructors' championship in 2024, Brown has his sights set on more title glory in 2025. He explains how he reorganised the team to lead it back to the front, how McLaren almost lost the title by seven-tenths of a second, and why drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri can step up to another level in 2025.Use coupon code pod15 at checkout to get 15% off a subscription to The Intercooler's online car magazine!

This week we have a special interview with newly minted F1 World Champion team boss, Zak Brown. Zak has been McLaren's CEO since 2018, but it's taken him several attempts to get the right team structure and management team to bring a first Constructors' World Championship since the heady days of 1998. Zak has developed into a strong leader and here he shares some of his management techniques. He used to run sports marketing businesses and was recognised as one of the best sponsorship brokers in the sport for a decade, but an F1 team has many more departments, all of which have to be high-performing. So what was the secret to finally getting McLaren in shape to deliver the title? Does he regret not being more ruthless at certain races in 2024, which might have given Lando Norris a better shot at winning the drivers' title? Why does he feel the FIA must make serious changes to the refereeing of the sport in the stewards' room? And do McLaren start the 2025 season as Championship favourites? In the studio to analyse with James are Autosport's Editor-in-Chief Rebecca Clancy and Chief Motorsport Writer Ben Hunt.

The 2024 Formula 1 season is turning on its head, and how. It's almost as though we don't want this season to end. Red Bull Racing was the fastest in the first third of the season, McLaren followed in the second third. Could Ferrari be the fastest in the last third of the season? It might just be so, and if it is so, how high can Ferrari and their drivers finish in the World Championship? Ferrari has overtaken Red Bull Racing for second place in the Constructors' Championship. Can Ferrari catch McLaren? Carlos Sainz dominated in Mexico, maybe literally for the first time in his Formula 1 career. He was untouchable in Qualifying, and then in the Race. But did Max Verstappen cost Lando Norris a fair shot at victory by messing it up early race? Were Verstappen's time penalties justified? We hope the penalties in Mexico weren't a hangover of the penalties Verstappen didn't get in the previous races! And of course, Charles Leclerc honestly admitted why he couldn't match Sainz throughout the weekend in Mexico City. Btw, a great "catch" by Leclerc while Norris chased him down for second place on the podium. In this episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Soumil Arora, @f1statsguru and Kunal Shah review the 2024 Mexico City Grand Prix. Haas' double points score, the time penalties for Red Bull Racing drivers, Liam Lawson vs. Sergio Perez + Lawson's "finger" salute, Pato O'ward's random IndyCar vs. F1 reference and more. Absolutely love how Zak Brown photobombed Ferrari's post-race celebrations photo, and Sainz returned the favour. Tune in!

Jon Noble and Alex Kalinauckas report live from the paddock for a review of Friday's action from Austin, Texas. The war of words continued between McLaren and Red Bull team bosses Zak Brown and Christian Horner, with Brown calling for a deeper investigation into the Bull's "Bib" device, despite the FIA calling it a "non-story", as Horner claims Brown's starting a fire in someone else's house... Meanwhile on the track, Max Verstappen captured his first pole of any kind since June as he beat George Russell to Sprint Pole by just 12 thousandths of a second. The duo talk about where Max's pole was won, whether Red Bull has caught up to McLaren's speed, and where an upgraded Mercedes factors into the fight. Learn more about your ad choices.

Later, Kevin and Curt talk about the likelihood of returning to some previous tracks that fans have been vying for several seasons. They talk about if they will ever go back to Phoenix and Watkins Glen. They also talk about the possibility of Daniel Riccardo racing IndyCar, and his fear of ovals. To end the show, Kevin reviews what they missed, including if the IMS oval test will be open to the public. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sets out to learn more about the world of open wheel motorsports as he sits down with the CEO of McLaren Racing Zak Brown. Big news brought the open wheel executive to town as McLaren joined Hendrick Motorsports in announcing that Kyle Larson will return to the Indianapolis 500 in 2025 for another attempt at the Memorial Day double. Zak explains how the partnership with Rick Hendrick came together through an adoration for his race team, which he views as a North American equivalent of McLaren. He also credits Larson's versatility with being reminiscent of yesteryear's drivers like A.J. Foyt and Mario Andretti. As McLaren continues to flourish open wheel racing, Zak says his sights are set on becoming a top-outfit in the sports car ranks, competing in both WEC and IMSA in the future.Zak's background in racing can be traced to the 1981 Long Beach Grand Prix, which he attended with his parents and brother. A successful appearance on Wheel of Fortune when he was 13 and advice from Mario himself led to a door opening in go-kart racing, which Zak entered and never looked back. After finding a knack for securing sponsorship, Zak realized he was better fit on the marketing end of the sport and started his own company, Just Marketing, Inc., which quickly rose to being one of the top businesses in racing. Zak would sell the company and find himself at a professional crossroads before being faced with the ultimate career decision: be in line to one day run Formula One or help direct McLaren Racing. Thanks to his love of competition, Zak took the position at the legendary race team and helped it return to its former glory at the forefront of the racing world.Dale and Zak share one strong common thread, through Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s 1980s Nova, which currently resides in the JR Motorsports garage. Zak was a longtime owner of the vehicle before Dale Jr. was able to acquire it through auction, and he shares an incredible story of how he was able to confirm its authenticity.

After a month-long Summer Break, Formula 1 returns this week for the first of the final 10 races to close out the 2024 season. Round 15 of the Championship sees the sport head to the Dutch GP at Zandvoort, a tight, technical circuit with banking up to 19 degrees high. Stuart Codling and Ronald Vording join Bryn Lucas to discuss all the news that dropped during the Summer Break and preview the race itself. This includes the US Department of Justice opening an anti-trust investigation against Liberty Media after their refusal to let Andretti enter the sport, and the consideration of Rwanda joining the calendar in the future, potentially at the Dutch AND Belgian GP's expense.

McLaren are back on top of the Formula 1 podium, but their mission is far from accomplished yet. Since taking charge in 2018, CEO Zak Brown has overseen a huge transformation on and off the track and the team's progress has accelerated astronomically over the last 12 months. Lando Norris's long-awaited maiden Grand Prix victory in Miami is the culmination of an enormous amount of hard work to turn their fortunes around after an awful start last season left them right at the back of the grid. So how do they take the next steps to become serial winners and World Championship contenders? Speaking in Miami, Zak tells Tom Clarkson how he's instilling a winning mentality at McLaren, what Norris's victory means for his and the team's future, why he thinks Oscar Piastri is a match for Lando, whether he'd like his close friend Adrian Newey to join the team, and much more.

A multiple title winner at junior level and a point-scorer on his unexpected F1 debut in 2016, Stoffel Vandoorne seemed on track for a long and prosperous career in Formula 1. But his big break at McLaren in 2017 arrived during one of the team's most challenging periods. They finished second-last in the standings during Vandoorne's first season, endured a difficult transition from Honda to Renault engines the following year, and there was huge organisational change at the top as Zak Brown came in as CEO. After just seven points-finishes in two years, with a best result of P7, Stoffel was replaced by Lando Norris for 2019 and he hasn't raced in F1 since. Now a Test and Reserve driver for Aston Martin, the Belgian tells Tom Clarkson how he prepared for his first race in F1 at such short notice, the drama of signing his first McLaren contract, where it all went wrong during his two seasons on the grid, and what impact those struggles had on his mental wellbeing, motivation and enjoyment of racing.
