Lando Norris jokes about 'LiCo' expertise of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc after Mexico Grand Prix Qualifying

Lando Norris trolled Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc as questions about Lift and Coast surfaced after the 2025 Mexico Grand Prix qualifying at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. joking about the LiCo, Norris said how the Ferrar racers are experts at it.

In the post-qualifying press conference of the Mexico Grand Prix, the three racers were questioned about the possible use of Lift and Coast on Sunday. Reacting to it, Norris, who was one of the three racers, along with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc, joked:

"Ask these guys. They're pros at it. These guys, they do it every race. You always have to do it, [but] never as much as these guys."

Leclerc, responding to Norris' answer, said:

"Let's say, I think we're ready."

Interestingly, the talks about Lift and Coast arose after Leclerc had to perform the Maneuver multiple times in the last few races, especially during the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix. In the said race, Leclerc had to perform lift and Coast repeatedly to reduce fuel consumption and temperature of brake, and increase energy generation.

As Leclerc and Hamilton start from P2 and P3, respectively, it might be the scenario that the Ferrari racers might use Lift and Coast yet again on Sunday. Ahead of Leclerc and Hamilton, Lando Norris will start as he secured the pole position with an amazing final lap.

"I mean, I'm happy to be back on pole," Norris told the media in the post-qualifying interview. "it has actually been quite a long time. It was one of those laps you don't know what's happening, I knew it was decent but when I crossed the line I was pleasantly surprised. I've had some good races here in the past, so I'll focus on what I can control." (Via Sky Sports)

While Norris claimed the pole, his opponents, Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri, will begin from back, in P5 and P8 respectively. This will not only be a big boost for him in the race, but also act as an impetus in his search for the world championship.
