According to the Red Bull Racing world champion, McLaren's youngsters, especially Lando Norris, still have a lot to learn.
The Dutch driver believes that if McLaren had been more consistent, it would not be him celebrating the world title, but the papayas:
“Lando Norris would have won the world title, no matter what my advantage was. Simply because they had the best car, but as a team and individually they still have a lot to learn if they want to convert these credits into victories. They took home the constructors’ championship, that’s fine, but they could have prepared better for the drivers’ race. Instead, what do I hear? Papaya rules… Honestly, is that a joke? What is that supposed to mean? That you can’t race? When they tell me this nonsense on the radio, I immediately answer: silence…!! That’s what was missing, that they were able to show strength.” - revealed the secret Max Verstappen.
In your opinion, if Lando Norris had been more daring in certain situations, would he really have had a chance of beating Max Verstappen?
