She highlighted the significant progress achieved over the last eighteen months while acknowledging that there is still substantial effort required to regularly compete at the top, which she finds to be an exhilarating challenge.

“Achieving success requires the team to collaborate effectively, and I am relishing my position, which has enabled me to help reveal individual abilities and encourage everyone to unite in pursuit of our team’s goals.”

"I want to express my gratitude to Zak for believing in my leadership abilities. I also extend my thanks to my leadership team and all my colleagues in the Team for their ongoing cooperation and support. I am enthusiastic about the future accomplishments we can achieve together."

Zak Brown expressed his pleasure in announcing that Andrea's contract as the F1 Team Principal has been extended for several years. He highlighted Andrea's outstanding leadership skills, deep knowledge, and the high regard in which he is held both within the team and in the Formula 1 community, stating that Andrea is the ideal person to lead the team in its ongoing efforts to compete at the forefront of the grid.

As Team Principal, he has significantly influenced McLaren F1, affecting not just our on-track performance and team progress but also shaping our culture and mentality.

"Having secured long-term contracts with Lando, Oscar, and recently Andrea, we are assured in our pursuit of the World Championship title. We eagerly anticipate the future under Andrea's guidance."
