Brown teases Red Bull after Dutch GP win: 'We have more fun stuff coming'

McLaren have cut the gap in the Constructors World Championship to 30 points after Lando Norris won the Dutch Grand Prix. Oscar Piastri also finished ahead of Sergio Perez to score 12 points for the British team. According to Zak Brown, McLaren is keen to remain grounded, but Andrea Stella wants his team to believe they can topple Red Bull.

McLaren added more bits to the car and it seems to have worked. Norris was able to close down Verstappen, and then open up a 20 second advantage over the Dutchman. Despite the good news, Brown asks his team to remain grounded.

"The update worked but we need to keep our feet on the ground with how competitive Formula 1 in. We can't assume that will be a repeat every weekend but I hope we do it a few more times. We're getting closer. We've got a long way to go. It's very exciting. We have a fast car," Brown told Sky Sports.

Monza requires some circuit-specific car parts, but Brown teases Red Bull and shows confidence in those car changes. "We have some more fun stuff coming for Monza. It's a different type of track with high downforce. The Red Bull was fast in the quick stuff," Brown added.

Team principal Stella knows the Woking-based team can fight for the title. "Let's see if it's enough to be the best car at every venue with the upgrades. We keep going. There is not much we can do other than maximising every single event and adding performance to the car. I think we are in a strong trend. We should believe in it. We are determined and give our best. But we are fighting Red Bull who have been dominant," he said.
