Lando Norris , in his 110th race for McLaren, has finally secured his maiden Formula 1 victory,Before Sunday’s race, the British driver held the unwanted record for most F1 podiums without a victory, placing second or third on 15 occasions since his debut in 2019.
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella continued: “ deserves it so much. We have always said, as soon as we give him the right material, he will make it and he made it. “For me to prove those people wrong and prove the people who didn’t think I could go out and do it, it’s going to be an even bigger smile on my face today, so I thank all of them.”It can’t be denied that Norris’ upgraded MCL38 showed plenty of promise at the Miami Grand Prix.
“Once they switched onto the hard tyre, they just had more pace, and especially Lando, he was flying.However, Red Bull later revealed that Verstappen had sustained some minor damage to the underside of his car after hitting a bollard on the 23rd lap.When asked whether McLaren was showing its true pace following the raft of car updates, Verstappen responded: “I hope not!
The Woking-based team still won’t be rivalling the mighty Red Bulls on a regulary basis anytime soon, but the champions and Mercedes will be wary of the papaya car’s improvement. After getting stuck in traffic, Ricciardo crossed the line in 15th, while RB teammate Yuki Tsunoda finished seventh in front of Mercedes’ George Russell.
“The problem for him is that he’ll be looking at where his teammate finished,” Button said on Sky Sports.“People forget that, they’ll remember the results, and that’s the problem.“That’s the battle that’s important for him right now, for his future in the sport.”“He’s going to be down and he’s going to wish it could have been different.
