McLaren CEO Zak Brown believes another collision between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri is a matter of "when, not if", although he remains confident his team is equipped to deal with such a scenario.

Zak Brown wasn’t at the Red Bull Ring for last weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix and if truth be told, it’s probably a good job too. As they have done on several occasions so far this season, the McLaren duo of Lando Norris and Championship leader Oscar Piastri were locked in a tense battle at the front of the race.

McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown has shared his concerns about Max Verstappen's potential move to the Mercedes F1 team, saying he would be a bigger threat than he is at Red Bull. George Russell recently admitted that his contract extension was on hold amid ongoing talks between Mercedes and Verstappen.

McLaren CEO Zak Brown has described the prospect of Max Verstappen joining Mercedes as "scary" amid increasing speculation the four-time champion could switch teams as early as next year.
