Drivers don’t tend to win the race twice in a row, which is bad news for Lando Norris
McLaren F1 star Lando Norris is eager for a strong showing in Monaco but faces tough odds to secure a win, given his current performance.
Despite being the 2025 world champion, Norris has yet to claim a victory this year and sits in fifth place in the drivers’ championship, trailing Kimi Antonelli by 73 points.
To rekindle his championship hopes, Norris must deliver in Monaco with a performance reminiscent of his win at the event last year.
However, historical trends suggest a challenging task ahead, as no driver has won the Monaco GP consecutively in the last 11 years, except for Nico Rosberg.
With Norris seemingly out of the running due to the supposed curse, the focus shifts to Ferrari and Mercedes as potential contenders for the 2026 Monaco GP victory.
