McLaren had another strong weekend at the Monaco Grand Prix with Lando Norris, but Daniel Ricciardo 's results were again disappointing. Behind the scenes you get to see what the atmosphere was like at the team from Woking.

Painful for Ricciardo

For McLaren, it is still a shaky start to the season. In the first race no points were scored and with 59 points after seven races the team cannot be satisfied. Norris still gets nice results, including a podium in Imola, but Ricciardo remains far behind. The Australian scored only eleven points.

In Monaco it went wrong again for the eight-time race winner. In the second free practice he ended up in the wall and that did not help to increase his confidence in the MCL36. In qualifying, Ricciardo dropped out after Q2 and in the race he didn't get further than P13. Norris finished sixth and picked up the point for the fastest lap. Behind the scenes, you can clearly see the difference.
