F1 world champion advises Lando Norris to work with mental coach to aid title bid
2016 F1 world champion Nico Rosberg suggests that Lando Norris could benefit from working with a mental coach to improve his chances for the 2025 title bid. Norris is currently 10 points behind his teammate Oscar Piastri in the fight for this year’s F1 world championship. Piastri has outperformed Norris this season, winning five races to Norris’ two, particularly excelling in qualifying sessions. Rosberg, who worked with a sports psychologist during his championship-winning season, noted Norris’ struggles at the Spanish Grand Prix and recommended mental coaching for the McLaren driver. Despite Piastri’s current lead, both McLaren drivers are closely matched in points going into the upcoming Canadian Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen facing challenges following penalties and potential race suspension. Nonetheless, McLaren has remained strong despite Verstappen’s pressure, showing resilience in the face of tough competition.
