“Get Out of…”: Papaya Army Slams Zak Brown Amid a “Mediocrity” Show for Lando Norris & Co.

McLaren got a sliver of hope for a better result on Sunday as Oscar Piastri, after his heroics in qualifying, sealed the P8 spot on the starting grid. However, a chaotic start saw him take damage to his front wing, resulting in him pitting early in the race. Eventually, things once again returned to their abysmal self as Piastri slid toward the back of the grid to give his teammate Lando Norris some company. Needless to say, fans are far from impressed and the voices for CEO Zak Brown’s ouster are growing.

Despite McLaren delivering an arguably sub-par car, Piastri managed to steer his way through to Q3 on Saturday. That was after coming out from a depressing outing in the season opener in Bahrain, where he bowed out of the race prematurely. Norris, on the other hand, took damage to his front left after making contact with the wall in Q1. That ended his qualifying, landing him a P19 position on the starting grid.

After Oscar moved to the back of the grid, he frequently found himself going wheel to wheel with his own teammate. In the final lap, the Aussie overtook American rookie Logan Sargeant for P15. Meanwhile, Lando had a drag race to the finish line with Logan but remained in P17.

Later, Zak Brown took to Twitter to assure fans that they will bounce back stronger for Piastri’s home race in Australia. He wrote, “Tough race after an unlucky start with damage to both cars on the opening lap. Made it too difficult to turn things around. But we tried hard. Oscar P15, Lando P17. Time to get our season back on track in Australia.”

Brown did not find many takers for his statement as fans urged him to step down from his position.

Some fans made some sound suggestions, urging Brown to get the car fixed ahead of the next race.

Other fans were far from polite in expressing their anger.

Some found hilarious memes to express their anguish with the team.
