2025 season starts

Lando Norris, Mclaren, wins the first race of the 2025 season in Melbourne Australia. Led from pole to flag except for a couple of laps during pit stops. Excellent start. Oscar, his teammate, who comes from Melbourne was in second place until a wet corner caught him out, he finished 9th. No Aussie driver has ever won the Aussie GP so Oscar was gutted. Only one Aussie driver has ever finished in the top 3 and he was disqualified for a technical infringement. 6 didn't finish all due to crashes in the wet conditions, one on the formation lap! 4 of the 6 rookies didn't finish but then neither did Fernando Alonso the oldest and most experienced driver on the track. Lot's of rain and safety cars. Exciting!

Mclaren one two (Oscar/Lando) at Chinese GP. A simple win with little drama up front. Mclaren's 50th one two. This season has an inkling of the greatest season ever with Senna and Prost at McLaren.

Well Landon qualified on pole and won the Monaco GP! My son even got a hug from Zak Brown (Mclaren F1 Chief Executive). Quite a special day. For those new to HAF my son is one of Lando's race engineers. First win at Monaco since 2008.

My son with the trophies from today and the qualification tyre from saturday.

Lando wins in Austria 2025. Oscar comes a close second. Max is nurfed of the track by Kimi Antonelli on the first lap. A very exciting first 20 laps with with Oscar never more than a second behind and at one point overtakes Lando who recovered the lead on the next corner. Memories of Senna and Prost.



With 11 of 24 races done McLaren is 207 points ahead of Ferrari. Oscar is now 15 points ahead of Lando. With a difference of 7 points between 1st an second place only a couple more wins to be right on each other!

Andreas Stella is apparently a fantastic boss. He listens all the time and once he has listened he reiterates back what he thinks he heard and he doesn't comment until he is sure he has understood what somebody is trying to explain. He may then disagree but he will be able to explain exactly why he disagrees. He never pulls rank.

^ If one wants any successful organization, that's how it's done. It's good to see your son in a successful situation. Everybody deserves that.

I agree absolutely. Best boss I ever had was like that. It really made me think out any ideas I had before I bothered her with them.
