NORRIS AND PIASTRI OPTIMISTIC AS MCLAREN BRING MORE UPGRADES

McLaren continues its push up the grid, bringing another round of upgrades to the Canadian Grand Prix after a strong showing in Miami. Lando Norris took the Sprint win in Florida, with both Norris and Oscar Piastri securing podium finishes in the Grand Prix, a significant step forward for the team. The squad hopes these new modifications, following a substantial package in Miami, will further close the gap to competitors.

Piastri acknowledged Canada hasn't traditionally been McLaren's best circuit, while Mercedes has often excelled there. He views competitiveness this weekend as a key indicator for the rest of the season. Norris admits implementing new parts during a Sprint weekend carries risk but trusts the team's preparations. Mercedes is also set to debut significant upgrades in Montreal, setting up a fascinating battle for pace. McLaren's continued development aims to find those crucial "thousandths and hundredths" to maintain their momentum.
