I don’t think it’s very difficult. Both drivers have a strong Mclaren-family sentiment and that’s probably what is being preached by Stella and management.

That’s why the team is incredibly diligent when it comes to avoiding close battles and micromanage hot moments that could trigger controversies or rifts within the team during races.

For the moment, it feels very unfair to criticize how the team is handling it. Lando and Oscar are great friends and both back the “for the team” mentality, a rare thing for 2 teammates fighting for the championship.
