Norris doesn’t blame F1 Las Vegas track for accident
Lando Norris, the McLaren driver, crashed heavily during the race due to a combination of factors. One of the factors was a significant bump on the track at Turn 11. Additionally, Norris had cold tires, resulting in lower ride heights, and following closely behind other cars reduced the downforce. Norris believes he caught the bump at a worse angle than usual, making its effects bigger. He also mentioned that there were other circumstances involved, making it an unlucky incident. Norris downplayed the idea of changing the track and emphasized that the tarmac worsened the situation. He mentioned feeling fine after the crash but was frustrated by the missed opportunity in the race when he saw his teammate’s pace.
