Stella: The track in Jeddah is one of the fastest of the season

      The McLaren team is leading in both championship standings and is preparing for the fifth stage of the season with the same confident attitude, especially since the fast track in Jeddah is quite suitable for the MCL39 car.

         Lando Norris: "I am happy to return to Jeddah, where the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix will be held this weekend. This is a very fast track, and we have a fast car, so we intend to finish the series of three races in a row confidently.

      I'm proud of how we started the season. We celebrate our successes, including helping to further consolidate the team, but we have a lot to analyze, and the conclusions we have drawn will need to be taken into account in the process of preparing for the upcoming race.

      I'm in a good mood and I'm looking forward to getting back to work on the track this weekend."

      Oscar Piastri: "I am very pleased with the victory in Bahrain and the way we achieved it. Therefore, before the next race weekend, I feel confident in my abilities.

      I like the track in Jeddah, I have good memories of previous performances on it, and I am determined to achieve good results in Saudi Arabia."

      Andrea Stella, Team Principal: "After a successful weekend in Bahrain, we immediately turned our attention to preparing for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. Thanks to the efforts of everyone who works at McLaren, we have a fast car, and the speed of the MCL39 is encouraging.

      The Jeddah circuit is one of the fastest on the calendar, and there are overtaking opportunities. This year we will get softer tires, and this may be one of the factors that will make the upcoming race exciting.

      As always, we remain as focused as possible and hope to finish the series of three races in a row with another good result."
