What I always tell the team is mistakes are okay, just learn from them and don't make the same one twice. That makes you smarter the next time around. So I'm quite relaxed with the learnings that we've gone through this year.

Zak Brown has stated that he is relaxed by the lessons learned by his team throughout the season. Brown has, however, instructed them to not make the same mistakes over and over again, as it would spoil their chances in the title race.

McLaren is only 42 points the mighty Red Bull in the Constructors Championship. They will now hope to keep up their first half intensity during the remaining 10 races in order to lift the title for the first time since 1998.
