Guenther Steiner put forward an unlikely candidate as the key to the Max Verstappen vs Lando Norris F1 title race.
Former Haas F1 boss Guenther Steiner believes that Ferrari could be a key factor in helping Lando Norris challenge Max Verstappen for the F1 title. With 180 points left in the season, Norris is currently 52 points behind Verstappen, but McLaren’s performance has been impressive compared to Red Bull’s. A significant floor upgrade is expected for the upcoming United States Grand Prix, where Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc is currently third in the standings and not seen as a major threat to Verstappen. Steiner gives a 60-40 chance to Norris for the title, noting that Ferrari’s ability to take points away from Verstappen could make a crucial difference in the championship race. He emphasizes the importance of Ferrari supporting Norris by finishing ahead of Verstappen in races to significantly impact the points standings.
