McLaren team principal Andrea Stella says the relationship between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri is going from strength to strength.
That is despite the pair being involved in a close battle for this year’s Drivers’ Championship title.
“Let me say that if anything, the relationship between Oscar and Lando keeps improving, and this is not the effect of a random evolution,” said Stella.
“This is because we invest in relationships. Relationships are one of the, when I refer to fundamentals of Formula One.
“Actually, relationships are probably slightly less tangible, but I think it’s as fundamental as aerodynamics and this involves the relationship between drivers and the team and the drivers.
“If I take the race that we had last year in Hungary, we spent quite a lot of time in reviewing that individually with the drivers together, the two drivers, we tried to learn each other as much as possible.
“We tried to remind ourselves that F1 is difficult and we are always going to face some difficulties, and this is an awareness that we need to have.”
