Lando Norris is due to start the Canadian Grand Prix from seventh on the grid after a difficult qualifying.
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella emphasized the need to “polish” Lando Norris to rectify crucial errors in his qualifying performances. Despite starting the Canadian Grand Prix from seventh, his lowest grid position this season next to Saudi Arabia, Norris encountered key mistakes. Stella praised Norris for his competitive edge during the weekend but noted his tendency to overdrive, as seen in previous races like the Spanish Grand Prix where he lost pole to teammate Oscar Piastri. Although Norris demonstrated strong pace, Stella acknowledged the importance of balancing aggression with caution to avoid costly errors. The team is focused on refining Norris’ approach to maximize performance without compromising results.
