Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen’s emerging rivalry with Lando Norris continues at the British Grand Prix and this time Norris has home fans behind him. Sunday’s race follows their crash at last weekend’s Austrian GP, the home race of Verstappen’s Red Bull team.
McLaren driver Lando Norris of Britain answers to reporters during a news conference ahead the British Formula One Grand Prix at the Silverstone racetrack, Silverstone, England, Thursday, July 4, 2024. Red Bull driver Max Verstappen of the Netherlands answers to reporters in the paddock at the Silverstone racetrack, Silverstone, England, Thursday, July 4, 2024. The British Formula One Grand Prix will be held on Sunday.
“I always said to Lando, when you go for moves up the inside, outside, you can trust me that I’m not there to try and crash you out,” Verstappen said. “I felt everything that I did was nothing massively over the top.”At the 2021 British GP, Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton collided heavily on Lap 1 at the high-speed Copse corner.
Mercedes driver George Russell, who benefited from the late crash to win in Austria, seemed to agree. There is fresh hope in a season producing five different race winners in 11 races, compared to just three in 22 in 2023 with Verstappen winning a staggering 19.
