Can This American Hustler Drag McLaren to a Second Title?

Video Description

When McLaren called in Zak Brown 2016, the legendary team was falling apart — no titles in decades, toxic leadership, failed engine deals. But Brown didn’t just fix McLaren’s finances. He rebuilt the team’s culture, brought back the iconic papaya colors, and most importantly, he made courageous moves in the driver market that shaped the team’s future. Brown backed Lando Norris early, letting his personality shine and building the team around his talent. Later, he pulled off one of the most dramatic driver signings in recent memory, poaching Oscar Piastri from Alpine in an insane legal showdown. Now, with both drivers locked into long-term deals, McLaren finally has the lineup and the car to fight at the front. In 2024, they took it a step further, winning races and ultimately the Constructors' title — their first in years. Lando Norris finally grabbed his maiden victory, while Oscar Piastri showed he could go wheel-to-wheel with the best in the sport. But 2025 has brought a new challenge: two McLaren drivers, both title contenders, locked in a fierce championship battle. But under Zak Brown’s leadership, the team stayed united, at least for now. So the question now is simple: Can McLaren win both the Constructors' and the Drivers' Championships this year? Can Zak Brown pull off the ultimate F1 comeback story — turning a team in ruins into a dual-title winner? And between Norris and Piastri, who will emerge as McLaren’s first world champion since Lewis Hamilton in 2008?
