MINICHAMPS - McLAREN - F1 MCL60 TEAM McLAREN N 4 MONACO GP 2023 LANDO NORRIS

After a disappointing season, McLaren has achieved a much more substantial path in 2023. In an era in which races follow each other week after week at an almost unsustainable pace and private testing during the season is prohibited, the English team has demonstrated that it is still possible to transform a car that was not very competitive at the beginning of the year into a very efficient machine . The Mercedes-powered MCL60 not only allowed McLaren to overtake Aston Martin but to become a real threat to Red Bull. This exploit is all the more surprising as the team is still in full reconstruction under the direction of Zak Brown. McLaren finished 2023 fourth among constructors with 302 points.

McLaren's start to the 2023 season has been quite complicated. In Monte Carlo Lando Norris achieved a 9th place, after qualifying tenth. After the Monaco GP McLaren occupied sixth place in the constructors' standings with 17 points.
