Lando Norris is SeriOutly Considering Max Verstappen in The Title Race. The Dutchman is boxes of Points behind the McLaren Drivers in The Championship. Yet the Briton Thinks That Red Bull Is At The Same Level As His Own Team.
“Max is a serious rival for us,” Said the 25-year-old Norris on Thursday in Singapore. “If you look back at the beginning of the season, They Competed With Us For The Victory In The First Six, Seven Races. Then we Brought Some updates and Became Stronger, But then evenly comes with a Few Level.”
Verstappen seemed to have no chance for the title in the summer. But Since He managed to win the past Two Races, The Dutchman’s Chances of Winning the Championship Are Again A Topic of Discussion. At the same time, Verstappen’s Gap to Leader Oscar Piastri (69 points) and Number Two Norris (44 points) is Still Large.
Norris Emphasizes That the Speed at McLaren has not Suddenly Disappeared. “This Weekend, Just Like Last Year, We Can Just Dominate Again,” He said. “In Baku we had the car to win, but it did’s work out. We were able to challenge max there. The racing before in Monza they were just too fast for us again.”
That will happen more ofes in the coming races, Norris Thinks. “I expect them to be fast on many circuits this year. In Las Vegas and on other tracks with low downforce, we expect that we are less strong, so the opportunities are with red bull. But we must mainly look at urselves and get the most out of irelance.”
The Grand Prix Weekend in Singapore Starts on Friday at 11.30 am (Dutch Time) with the first free practice. On Saturday at 3 pm is the Qualification and on Sunday at 2 pm the racing starts.
