“But what a drive. The car was great. I’ve got to thank everyone back at McLaren, and here. All the hard work is paying off… Yeah I don’t mind Miami. It’s kind of my home country, so why not? [on getting a tattoo].”
Brown has McLaren’s 2021 Italian Grand Prix win immortalised on his arm – after Daniel Ricciardo rocked and rolled his way around the Autodromo Nazionale Monza. The Aussie’s win in Italy was the first under Brown’s McLaren stewardship.

Brown joked that Miami has quite a few more corners than Monza when it comes to getting the ink.
“This is long overdue,” Brown added when asked about Norris’ win. “I think this is a very popular win amongst the fans and the drivers. The drivers went up to him and congratulated him. He drove perfectly. The car was really fast. I think Gil de Ferran and Mansour had something to do with today.”
Norris was able to hold of Verstappen by seven seconds, with Charles Leclerc’s Ferrari rounding out the podium after arriving home a couple of seconds behind the Dutch megastar.
