Formula 1 2020: McLaren boss Zak Brown hails 'great year' for team in constructor's championship

Firstpost  

A jubilant Brown said McLaren had “a great year” after Lando Norris and his Ferrari-bound team-mate Carlos Sainz finished fifth and sixth in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Abu Dhabi: McLaren boss Zak Brown hailed his team on Monday for snatching third place in the constructors’ championship and forecast that their 2021 drivers’ line-up will be the most exciting in Formula One. “Actually, it has been a great year after a difficult period in the public spotlight — a truly team effort by everyone.” Brown forecast that the arrival of Daniel Ricciardo from Renault to race alongside Norris would give McLaren “the most exciting line-up in F1 next year” on and off track. “Lando has come off a great first year and is now really coming of age and Daniel is a seven-time winner.” McLaren, once a powerhouse team and always fighting for the championship during the heyday of drivers like Niki Lauda, Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna, have not won the drivers’ championship since Lewis Hamilton’s first in 2008.
