Zak Brown has revealed his goal at McLaren for the rest of the 2025 season after winning their second consecutive Constructors' Championship.

"[McLaren's aim is] to win every race."

McLaren have performed admirably throughout the 2025 season, and they wrapped up the Constructors' Championship at the Singapore Grand Prix.

The British team took advantage of an excellent start to the year as Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri won six of the first eight events between them.

McLaren Racing CEO Brown, told the official McLaren website that he wants to completely dominate the final four rounds.

He said when asked what his goal is for McLaren over the last four events: "To win every race."

The team principal, Andrea Stella agreed: "Exactly, and that would give us P1 and P2 in the Drivers' Championship, which is what we want."

Brown also said that McLaren have already won the quartet of events the American outlined as key targets for the team in 2025.

The Bahrain Grand Prix is critically important for McLaren because the country's sovereign wealth fund, Mumtalakat, is the owner of the McLaren Group and Piastri won that event.

Formula 1's trip to Monaco was also a key target for McLaren, and Norris won there in May. As well as this, Britain and Australia are key, as they are Norris and Piastri's home events, where Norris won this year.

Stella feels that the final four races are the events he wants to win most this season as the campaign draws to a close.

He said: "If you had asked me at the start of the season [which races are most important], I would've said São Paulo, Las Vegas, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi…

“For me, we haven't achieved anything yet this year,” the Italian concluded.

McLaren have been very competitive this year and were able to defend their Constructors' Championship for the first time since 1991.

The British team are still competing for their first Drivers' Championship since Lewis Hamilton won in 2008. Currently, there is just one point separating Norris and Piastri after the British driver took the championship lead with a superb win in Mexico.

McLaren do have Max Verstappen to worry about

McLaren have held a significant advantage over the rest of the field for much of 2025 but Max Verstappen has won three events since the summer break.

The Dutchman is now 36 points behind the championship leader Norris with four events to go as F1 heads to Brazil on 7-9 November.
