Norris laughed at how bad Verstappen’s car was in qualifying
McLaren’s driver finished second in the race, behind Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz, on a weekend where Red Bull unexpectedly struggled and lost their unbeaten streak in 2023. Verstappen and Perez had a disastrous qualifying session and were both eliminated in Q2. Despite their difficulties, Verstappen managed to secure fifth place in the race, while Perez finished eighth. Norris revealed that he and Verstappen shared a laugh about Red Bull’s struggles after qualifying. He also argued that the season would have been more exciting without Red Bull’s dominance, as there have been great battles among the “best of the rest” teams such as McLaren, Aston Martin, and AlphaTauri.
