Zak Brown: Don't miss the start of today's race
McLaren Racing boss Zak Brown is looking forward to a spectacular start in today's race...
Zak Brown: "The stakes are very high. We know Max will try to grab the lead into the first corner, so don't miss the start of today's race.
Our goal is to secure the championship for McLaren, so if we can finish in the same positions we start from and then have our two drivers fight it out for the title in Abu Dhabi, that's our aim. And if they want to swap places, that's up to them — I don't mind.
It's the usual story, they know the rules. We enjoy watching them compete with each other; they fight hard but fair. We'll see how it all plays out."
