“Is That Going to Make the Car Any Faster?”: Zak Brown & Co.’s $46 Billion Move Slammed as Frustrated Fans Vent Out Their Anger

Financial minds would always say that you have to make your money work for you. But one of the decorated F1 teams has failed to live up to this philosophy. McLaren, who is heavily lacking in pace, is gathering sponsors like a child goes for marbles, but hasn’t been able to strike the balance to achieve the ultimate goal. And the patience of fans which was already hanging by a thread seems to run thin with Zak Brown‘s lack of fruitful results.

The Papaya team announced its official partner yesterday. Workday, the American finance management company has signed a multiyear deal with the company’s net worth estimated at around $46 Billion. However, the big announcement hasn’t impressed the supporters and instead angered them. McLaren’s CEO Zak Brown has been a target of the fan’s frustration and this isn’t the first time he has been called out for collecting sponsors and not building a fast car.

To add to the piling restlessness amongst the Papaya Army, the man at the helm of it all has been asked by the fans to vacate his position of responsibility after the horrible showing in the first two races of 2023. And since there isn’t a speck of doubt about the talents of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, the machine, and faulty construction seem to be the issue.

Fans remain unimpressed by McLaren’s Zak Brown’s money move

A multi-year deal with an American company when the sport is soaring in the United States. However, is that all you need to be able to sustain and leave a mark? The answer to that is a no, as one needs to soar on the track as well. And the late developmental approach which is supposed to come to fruition at Baku seems like a tall claim considering the slow, painful wonder that McLarens has produced. F1 Twitter let out their frustration against the iconic team about their slow speed when they announced another sponsor.
