McLaren principal Stella signs contract extension

Principal Andrea Stella has agreed to remain with McLaren after signing a multi-year contract with *********** driver Oscar Piastri’s high-riding team.

Stella, 53, joined McLaren in 2015 and worked his way up to team principal, being promoted in 2022. Since then, McLaren drivers have two Grand Prix wins and 18 podiums to go with a sprint victory.

“It’s a privilege to be part of the McLaren Formula 1 team, and I am honoured to continue in my role as team principal,” Stella said.

“We’ve made great strides forward in the past year and a half and we still have a lot more work to do to consistently ****** at the front of the grid, which poses an exciting challenge.”

This season, drivers Piastri and Britain’s Lando Norris, have 10 straight podium finishes, including a 1-2 result at the Hungarian Grand Prix on July 21.

As a result, McLaren are challenging Red Bull for the world championship, trailing by just 42 points. Both drivers have also signed contract extensions.

“His impact on McLaren F1 in his role as team principal has been profound, not only through our results on track and the trajectory of the team but also in his development of our culture and mindset,” McLaren CEO Zak Brown said.

“With multi-year extensions already agreed with Lando, Oscar, and now Andrea, we can confidently continue on our quest to become world champions. We’re all looking forward to the years to come under Andrea’s leadership.”

Formula 1 resumes on August 25 with the Dutch Grand Prix.
