The Azerbaijan GP turned out to be the turning point for McLaren to snatch the Constructors’ Championship lead from Red Bull. Oscar Piastri’s exceptional skills and MCL38’s pace helped them win in Baku and become the constructors’ leaders after a decade. However, team principal Andrea Stella has emphasized that the team is now gearing up for the next challenge in Singapore.

After the recent success in Baku, Andrea Stella stated that the team is ready for the next challenge in Singapore. Singapore is another street circuit like Baku, but very different and comes with its own challenges. He emphasized that the race would be particularly tough due to high humidity, making it difficult for drivers to stay focused.
