Welcome back to The Steward's Office, your go-to F1 podcast for the low-down on race weekends, paddock gossip and silly season news.

This week I'm looking at the reasons why McLaren had such a jump in the middle of the season because it definitely wasn't something any of us were expecting. And I'm also having a chat about why I think McLaren will be a team that we need to keep an eye on in the coming years as the try to fight for championships again.

So, get ready because you've been summoned to The Steward's Office.
