Lando Norris reflects on his mindset for the title fight
McLaren racer Lando Norris said that he believed that he was way more prepared for the title fight this year compared to his last season campaign against Max Verstappen.
In an interaction with Rcer, the Glastonbury-born said:
“From a racing side, I've learned a lot of things. Just generally more experience. What comes with experience is just dealing with more situations, going through more things, understanding your team better, and them understanding you better. So naturally, you're just more prepared for any situation.
“You're more prepared, but the second part is actually being a better driver on top of that. I think I'm going to say it in every interview I do, probably from now on – maybe not ever – but I feel now more like the most complete driver I've ever been. I feel like I'm ready to tackle more challenges, and all of these things."
Currently, Lando Norris sits nine points behind his teammate Oscar Piastri with 10 races and three sprints left in the current season.
