“What is McLaren doing?” – That exact line, followed by a “WTF”, is what I wrote yesterday in our internal editorial chat when I saw both McLaren Formula 1 drivers calmly cruising past the pit entry behind the safety car.
Hindsight is always 20/20, of course, but I was surely not the only F1 follower who didn’t understand why McLaren had just opened the door for Max Verstappen to win the Qatar Grand Prix and push the title decider to the Abu Dhabi finale.
