McLaren just don't have the necessary championship mentality yet. But this may be the necessary kick to get them there. And getting Piastri the win is probably the right call in the long run. I'm not convinced that Lando (or George or Charles for that matter) have that dawg in them that's needed for a tight championship battle. I've seen fewer reasons for sketpicism from Oscar, so far.

Part of it is Lando isn't realistically challenging for the Driver's Championship this year. If those points gave him a chance to top Max I can see it.
But McLaren does have a chance at constructors this year given how Perez has been performing, especially if Perez gets replaced and whoever they go with takes a couple of races to get up to speed with the car.
