Ex-Formula 1 driver Martin Brundle insists Lando Norris should be cautious regarding his loyalty to McLaren and “keep options open”
There is a possibility that Red Bull may change its driver line-up in 2025 if Sergio Perez continues to struggle alongside Max Verstappen next year. Perez had a difficult season, finishing 290 points behind his teammate, who had 19 victories compared to Perez’s two. Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko previously criticized Perez’s consistency and mentioned Lando Norris as a potential candidate for a vacant seat. Norris had talks with Red Bull before renewing with McLaren until 2025. Sky Sports commentator Martin Brundle believes Norris should consider leaving McLaren if they fail to deliver results in 2024 and should aim for a World Championship. Nevertheless, Brundle is optimistic about McLaren’s progress and thinks they can compete with Red Bull. He hopes that McLaren, along with Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Mercedes, can close the gap and provide a more exciting competition in Formula 1.
