Norris’ slu𒁃ggish start ultimately was the reason he lost out on the win in Hungary to Piastri.

Explained in a review on their official website, McLaren explained that the glitch on Norris’🅰 car occurred in second gear during the start phase.

They wrote: “It wasn’t the smoothest of starts to the race for Lando, though, as he experienced a small glitch f꧒inding second gear during his acceleration from pole.

“This allowed Verstappen to slips𝔉tream alongside ಞto his left, on the outside of the first corner.”

McLaren still claimed a 1-2 finish - their first since th🐽e 2021 Italian Grand Prix.

It means they sit just 51 points behind Red Bull in the constructors’ championship ahead of 🐼Spa-Francorchamps this weekend.

McLaren haven’t won the teams’ title since 1999, but with Red Bull’s Sergio Perez struggling for fo♊rm, it could be possible for the Woki꧅ng outfit this year.

Looking ahead to this weekend in Belgium,⛦ Piastri feels that McLaren can compete at the front at any type 🌞of track now.

“I think yes. I think we've proven this year that we can be quick in any circuit, any condition,” he said in Sunday’s FIA press conꦿference.

“We're always there at the front. And I mean, Spa's not been the happiest🐽 of hunting grounds for us recently, but I'm confident we'll be strong.

“You know, we've got a car that's become a real all-rounder, so I'm super confident, and I thi♈nk the re🐠st of the team should be as well.”
