Formula 1 | McLaren, it is essential to "maximize" the collection of points in the French GP

The aim is to reach the points zone with both drivers for McLaren in the next French Grand Prix, the 12th round of the 2022 Formula 1 world championship. Through the columns of the team's official website, Andreas Seidl did not use half measures to highlight the importance of the appointment on the Le Castellet track, given the heated battle with Alpine for fourth place in the constructors' championship. Stopping at 81 points, on par with the French team, the English team wants to maximize the result of the weekend in Provence as much as possible, so as to present itself in Budapest, the last test before the classic summer break, in a favorable condition compared to the rival team.

“We passed the halfway point of the season with a pleasant result with both drivers in Austria,” said the Team Principal. “Everyone in the team is working hard to improve and to give our drivers the chance to collect good results in the next double-leader of France and Hungary. The Paul Ricard circuit offers a number of good opportunities and the results obtained by Lando and Daniel last year give us hope. The track is known for the Mistral straight, but there are also extremely challenging corners, such as corners eight and nine. The team is determined to make the most of the weekend, before traveling to Hungary for the grand finale of this first part of the championship."
