What they say

Dani Bereznay

"For me personally, the first two Events weren't great in terms of converting performance to points. However looking at the positives, we are fifth in the Constructors' Championship. This is good because as soon as we extract our full potential, awesome times will come! I hope this is the point where we turn things around."

Bari Broumand

"I'm very much looking forward to Event 3. I'm generally happy with where I'm at, but the aim is to achieve more points for the team as we move forward. I'm excited to represent McLaren Shadow once again!"

Josh Idowu

"Reflecting on the first half of the season, I'm pleased with my impact so far in my first ever F1 Esports Series. Myself and the rest of the team feel confident as we head into Event 3."
