The 2026 Singapore Grand Prix provided a stark reality check for McLaren. While Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri ultimately secured a double-points finish in Sunday's main event, the weekend was heavily overshadowed by a disastrous inter-team collision during Saturday's Sprint race and a glaring pace deficit to their championship rivals.
Following the chequered flag, McLaren team principal Andrea Stella addressed both the car's current performance ceiling and the internal garage dynamics, making it explicitly clear that selfish driving will not be tolerated as the team fights for its position in the Constructors' Championship.
