The F1 team has been waiting since 1998. In Abu Dhabi, McLaren finally had reason to celebrate: They won the constructors' championship. The team has really done an incredible job and to be able to finish in this way was perfect, says star driver Lando Norris.

Norris, McLaren, shone in the United Arab Emirates and won the season's final Formula 1 race.

A victory that also secured the team's first constructor championship since 1998.

It feels incredible, not just for myself but for the entire team, says Norris in the victory interview in Viaplay's broadcast.
