麦凯轮计划分阶段升级2026赛季并推动下赛季F1发展
麦凯轮希望其升级计划能同时实现缩短与车队前列的差距，并了解明年F1赛季应针对的空气动力学概念。车队负责人安德里亚·斯特拉在新加坡站后阐述了团队的升级计划。

对于麦凯轮车队的粉丝来说，来自沃金克的最新消息，包括车手、赛车、团队策略以及每个周末的赛事。
麦拉伦希望其升级计划能够同时实现两个目标：缩小与车阵前部的差距，同时了解明年一级方程式赛季应该针对哪种空气动力学概念。车队负责人安德烈亚·斯特拉在新加坡站比赛后概述了团队的升级计划。
现任冠军兰多·诺里斯表示，他认为木瓜机械是车阵中第四快的赛车，他甚至称它为“全速前进且精神上非常消耗，因为你必须非常努力地驾驶。”
斯特拉对车队在最近几场比赛中表现不佳并不感到惊讶，尤其是与引入了成功升级的雷诺车队相比。
“总的来说，我认为没有太大的惊喜，”他对记者说。“很高兴在这里，我们在新加坡站的表现符合我们的预期。我认为，维斯塔潘和红牛车队只是在利用他们已经交付的升级。这就是我们本赛季所说的乒乓。”
基本上，人们都会带来升级，即使像梅赛德斯这样的车队，我理解他们自己也有一些问题。但当人们带来升级时，他们可以向前迈出小小的一步。即使在这里，红牛在某种程度上是主导的，但与我们相比，他们有三分之二的秒差距。三分之二的秒差距是一个你可以通过升级来增加的范围。
当被问及是否有更多的升级即将到来以及车队可以从接下来的几场比赛中获得什么时，斯特拉回答道：
我们确实计划提供一些升级，"他确认道。"我们希望它们能够填补我们与最佳车队之间的差距，并将麦克拉伦置于能够凭借实力争夺领奖台的条件下。然后我们是否能够争夺胜利，我认为我们可能需要看到最后的三场比赛，因为升级将会分阶段提供。
对我们来说，提供升级很重要，因为我们正在为锦标赛位置进行激烈的竞争。但我们还希望证明一些我们将带入明年车型的基本概念，因为在汽车成熟到这个水平时，你开始推动空气动力学的发展，你可能会开始看到一些事情是否有效。
但是有些事情可能不会奏效，因为空气动力学在经过基本两年的发展后开始变得足够复杂，如果我们考虑到发展始于2025年1月2日，而现在我们已经进入了2026年。所以现在经过两年后，它变得复杂了。
可能一切顺利，也可能出错。因此，我们想要跟踪测试一些我们带入下一年的基本要素。我认为这相当方便，因为红牛在积分上与我们相当，在竞争方面领先，我们想在锦标赛中向法拉利发起挑战。
升级是否能够开花结果又是另一个问题，但麦凯轮在正确处理这个问题上有着强大的历史记录。

McLaren to phase upgrades for 2026 fight and next year's F1 development
The team hopes its phased upgrades can bring it into contention for podiums on merit

For McLaren fans. Papaya news from Woking, with the latest on the drivers, the car, team strategy and every race weekend.
McLaren is hoping its upgrade plan can do two things at once: close the gap to the front of the grid while also forming an understanding of which aerodynamic concept it should be targeting for next year's Formula 1 season. Team principal Andrea Stella has laid out his thinking on the team's upgrade plan following the Singapore race.
Reigning champion Lando Norris said that he believed the papaya machinery was the fourth-fastest car on the grid, with him going as far as to call it "just full on and mentally draining because of how hard you have to work behind the wheel."
Stella wasn't surprised by the outfit's lack of performance over the recent races, especially compared to the likes of Red Bull, which has introduced successful upgrades to its car.
"So overall I think there's no big surprises," he told journalists. "It was good to see that here in Singapore we are where we expected to be. I think, Verstappen and Red Bull, they are just taking advantage of the upgrades that they have delivered. And it's what we call this season the ping-pong.
"Basically people come with upgrades, even if like in the case of Mercedes I understand that they have some issues themselves. But when people come with upgrades they can take a little step forward. And even if here Red Bull when they were kind of dominant, but compared to us they had three tenths of a second. And three tenths of a second is a range that you can add with an upgrade."
Asked whether more upgrades were on the way and what the team could take from the next few races, Stella answered:
"We do plan to deliver some upgrades," he confirmed. "We hope that they will be able to fill this gap that we have to the best cars and put McLaren in condition to fight for podiums on merit. And then whether we can fight for the victory this, I think we will have to see probably the last three races, because this the upgrades will be delivered in phases.
"It's important for us that we deliver upgrades because we are in a close fight for a championship position. But we also want to prove some of the fundamental concepts that we'll carry into next year's car because at this level of maturity of the cars you are starting to push the aerodynamic development and you may start to see that things work.
"But some things may not work because aerodynamics is starting to get complicated enough after, what it's basically two years of development if we consider that the development started the 2 January 2025 and now we are well into 2026. So after two years now it's complex.
"It may go right, it may go wrong. So we wanted to track test some of the fundamentals we carry into next year. And I think this is quite convenient because Red Bull pretty much they are on par with us in terms of point and they are ahead in terms of competitive and we wanted to set a quest to Ferrari in the championship."
Whether the upgrades bear fruit is another question, but McLaren has a strong track record of getting this right.
