TECH TUESDAY: How McLaren turned their car's fortunes around through the first half of the season
As we reflect on the first half of the 2023 season, it is quite clear that the most improved car during that time has been the McLaren MCL60, which began the year towards the back and is now a podium regular that has even occasionally led races.
It has been a season of three distinct segments for this car, with the steps being defined by two major upgrades – the first at Baku for race four and the next for race 10 in Austria – with the latter then refined by a further tweak at Silverstone for race 11.
