Lando Norris has cast doubt over McLaren’s chances of repeating their Japan or Qatar level of performance at this weekend’s United States Grand Prix.
McLaren has been performing exceptionally well lately, achieving seven podium finishes in the last eight races. This has allowed them to narrow the gap to Aston Martin to only 11 points in the constructors’ championship. However, Lando Norris is uncertain about their prospects at the Circuit of the Americas, as the track characteristics differ from what suits their car’s strengths. Norris acknowledges that slower speed corners are not their forte, and on circuits like this, Mercedes, Ferrari, and Aston Martin have historically been strong. Nevertheless, he remains optimistic and believes McLaren can still put up a fight. Additionally, this race marks Norris’ 100th race in Formula 1, a milestone that he is proud of and one that few people in the world get to achieve.
