At the end of each race weekend on some single-seaters technical checks are conducted more in-depth than the classic post-checkered flag checks. Being specific controls, they come drawn randomly only a few cars and among these, as emerges from the documents published by FIA, there is also McLaren's Lando Norris.
At the controls post Monaco Grand Prix Lando Norris' McLaren has arrived. The commissioners focused on the fuel system, "the low pressure fuel system" (the petrol pump). Checks carried out on the McLaren very carefully, so much so that the checks were carried out of the FIA in the technical center of Valleiry.
The FIA in the last week had also requested the fuel pumps of the McLaren and he would ask a Mercedes – as its supplier – to send its components for comparison. By regulation, the engines of the official and customer teams must be identical.
These checks have almost generated a 'mystery' that makes these days special. There were rumors circulating regarding McLaren's fuel pump, but to date everything is unfounded. Everything was verified by the Federation ed was found to comply with the technical regulation.
McLaren was randomly drawn and was subjected to checks following the draw, but these fuel doubts.
Having placed two in the top ten positions McLaren, the controls of Norris however “coincidental” they might have been, they were a probable circumstance.
The doubts arise because they were carried out precisely on the number 4 car, almost aware that they were going to hit the mark. Although everything was apparently carried out without a hitch, it is still a circumstance that leaves some doubts.
