In a jaw-dropping display of frustration, Hollywood star Jeffrey Dean Morgan has gone on a scorching tirade against McLaren’s management, specifically targeting CEO Zak Brown over allegations of driver favoritism that have ignited a firestorm within the F1 community. The actor, known for his roles in hit series like The Walking Dead and Watchmen, took to social media to voice his outrage following the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, where Lando Norris clinched the world championship title, marking a historic milestone as the 35th different champion in F1 history.
Morgan’s fury stems from ongoing whispers and conspiracy theories alleging that McLaren has been prioritizing Norris over his teammate, Oscar Piastri. Amidst the celebration of Norris’s triumph, Morgan’s impassioned remarks have taken the internet by storm. “Zak Brown is a weanie!” he proclaimed, unrestrained in his criticism of the team’s leadership. The actor didn’t stop there; he expressed profound sympathy for Piastri, suggesting that the young driver might be better off leaving the troubled team.
“Zak Brown is such a weanie. Screws up his own team but only cries about EVERYTHING else. Figure out your own s*** dude. Feel bad for Piastri. Hope he bails,” Morgan’s post read on X. His remarks didn’t just lash out at Brown’s management style; they also spotlighted the exceptional talent of Max Verstappen, whom Morgan hailed as “the greatest driver since Senna.” He noted Verstappen’s incredible comeback this season, where he nearly turned the tide with a stunning performance.
Morgan, who has never shied away from speaking his mind, continued his tirade, declaring, “Again. Zak Brown deserves s* all. Trophy for boning Oscar is about it. God I hope Piastri tells him to shove it where the sun don’t shine. Papaya rules my a. Lando rules perhaps.” His comments encapsulate a broader sentiment among F1 fans who are increasingly frustrated with perceived inequities within the McLaren team dynamics.
The implications of Morgan’s outburst resonate beyond mere celebrity gossip; they highlight a crucial moment in F1 where team politics and driver treatment are under intense scrutiny. With the season winding down and tensions rising, this explosive commentary from a high-profile figure like Morgan could serve as a catalyst for change within McLaren. As the drama unfolds, fans and pundits alike are left to ponder the future of Piastri and whether he will indeed choose to part ways with a team that has become a lightning rod for controversy.
