McLaren’s team principal, Andrea Stella, has warned that Max Verstappen remains a serious threat in the 2025 Formula 1 title race, despite trailing Oscar Piastri by nearly 100 points.
Stella emphasized that Verstappen’s recent performance improvements, particularly following Red Bull’s car upgrades, have made him a formidable contender once again.
He urged the team to stay focused and not underestimate the defending champion’s potential comeback.
