McLaren retorna à asa dianteira antiga para a sprint no Canadá

A McLaren voltou à especificação anterior de sua asa dianteira antes da classificação sprint do Grande Prêmio do Canadá, depois que ambos os pilotos relataram falta de confiança na nova versão.

A McLaren introduziu a segunda fase do seu pacote de atualizações de Miami em Montreal, que incluiu uma nova asa dianteira, além de uma nova cobertura do motor, carenagens da suspensão traseira revisadas e mudanças nas bordas do assoalho. Lando Norris iniciou os treinos com a asa atualizada, enquanto Oscar Piastri começou com a especificação anterior antes de trocar posteriormente na sessão. Nenhum dos pilotos se sentiu confortável com o novo componente, levando a equipe a retornar à versão mais antiga para o restante do fim de semana sob condições de parque fechado.
