FULL TRANSCRIPT: Read every word from McLaren boss Andrea Stella's Beyond The Grid interview

McLaren have been the great turnaround story of the season this year. From barely being able to scrap for points in the first half of 2023, they've leapt up the order and are now the second fastest team behind Red Bull, and scoring points and podiums aplenty. The man masterminding that success is Team Principal Andrea Stella.
The Italian – who also spent 15 years working at Ferrari – is this week’s guest on our Beyond The Grid podcast, and you can read every word from his interview with host Tom Clarkson in the transcript below, listen to the episode in the audio player, or head here to catch it on your preferred platform.
