What did Zak Brown say to Lando Norris in the DTS Season 6 teaser?

The teaser starts with Lando and Brown having a go on the greens, but instead of putts and pulls, it’s a heart-to-heart about McLaren. About what McLaren stands for and should stand for in the current scenario of Formula 1. They discuss stuff like bringing the  McLaren legacy of champions back, or at least be, the challengers to the front-row giants like Red Bull, Mercedes, and Ferrari.

That’s pretty much it, but it is the end worth hanging around for. Toward the end of the short teaser Brown said, with respect to the 2024 season, to Norris:

“Hope our racing is better than our golf,” a statement that dances on the edges of jest and earnest hope. This off-the-cuff comment, seemingly light and inconsequential, actually held within it layers of meaning—a reflection of a team’s aspirations for 2024, and the playful bond between a mentor and his protege. As viewers eagerly await the full release of Season 6, Brown’s words linger in the air, in a world where racing coexists with moments of lightness, which should be the case with anything.
