What a Moment for McLaren! 🏆 Congratulations to McLaren for clinching the F1 Constructors Championship! This is more than just a win; it’s a testament to persistence, belief, and an unshakable commitment to growth. When I started following F1, I never consciously 'picked' a team. I was drawn to McLaren, not just for their legacy, but for their teamwork culture and how they value people. They remind me that you don’t have to be the best at any given moment—you just have to keep learning and growing in the right direction. Nowhere is this personified more than in their drivers. They represent the team with such dignity; proving that you can still be gentlemanly in competition, (for the most part!) McLaren's ethos has clearly shaped them both. Oscar pushes himself to the limit to win, but he also accepts that it won’t always be enough—it just has to be his best on that day, and he can work on the rest. Personally I feel Lando's always been too hard on himself. This season however, he’s shown how channeling that self-criticism into learning and growth can change your perspective. He doesn’t hide his emotions, and I love that about him. When he’s disappointed, it shows. When he’s annoyed, it shows. And when he’s proud or happy, it really shows. Every race reflects more of Lando’s genuine character, shaped in large part I'm sure by McLaren and Zak Brown. He’s proving that winning is about so much more than speed and skill. It’s about integrity, trust, and playing for and with your team. That is why for me, he's my champion driver. 🏁🏎️ McLaren hasn’t won this title in years, but they never gave up. Instead, they displayed dedication, energy, patience, passion, and above all, resilience. Because, as they’ve shown, “You don’t win a Championship on your own. It's with the team” (- Will Joseph). It’s about every team member believing in the vision, pulling together, and proving that persistence pays off. What a journey—what a team! 👏 Who else is celebrating this incredible achievement?
