Coronel Baffled by McLaren's Remarks: 'They've Already Conceded 20 Points!'

Dutch Racing Legend Expresses Shock Over McLaren's Recent Statements

Coronel Questions McLaren's Strategy and Calls for Accountability

Former Formula 1 driver and Dutch racing legend, Robert Doornbos, has expressed his astonishment over recent comments made by McLaren Racing CEO, Zak Brown. Brown had suggested that his team may consider "strategic retirements" during races to optimize their performance for the 2023 season.

Coronel, a respected figure in the motorsport community, finds McLaren's stance unacceptable. He argues that such a strategy is tantamount to conceding defeat and is unbecoming of a team with McLaren's history and pedigree.

"It's incredibly baffling to me," said Coronel. "McLaren is one of the most iconic teams in Formula 1, and they should be aiming to win races, not giving up before they even start. This is not the McLaren I know and respect."

Coronel believes that McLaren's focus should be on improving their car's performance rather than resorting to questionable tactics. He emphasizes the importance of accountability and urges the team to take ownership of their weaknesses.

"McLaren needs to stop making excuses and start finding solutions," added Coronel. "They have the resources, the experience, and the talent to be competitive. It's time for them to show some grit and determination and prove that they deserve to be among the top teams in Formula 1."

Coronel's comments have resonated with many in the racing community, who share his concerns about McLaren's current approach. The upcoming 2023 season will be a critical test for the team, and it remains to be seen whether they can regain their former glory or continue to disappoint their loyal fans.
