Part 9/16:
Windsor expresses concerns over McLaren’s internal team management. He argues that their decision to pair Norris and Piastri—while seemingly progressive—has led to race incidents and psychological stress for both drivers. He criticizes the team's handling of Oscar’s performance drops and doubts whether McLaren fully anticipated the negative effects of their driver pairing.
He also points out that McLaren’s broader strategic flaws stem from not retaining Daniel Ricciardo, who could have been a stabilizing teammate for Norris and an internal benchmark. Windsor sees the squad lacking a clear, consistent team order and criticizes their efforts to manage two aggressive, talented drivers without a defined hierarchy, which risks undermining both drivers’ championship chances.
