Jorge Martin partnered with Lando Norris during the ongoing San Marino Grand Prix in MotoGP. In a video clip that surfaced on social media recently, Norris rode with Martin on a scooter at the Misano World Circuit in Emilia Romagna, Italy.
After the end of the Italian GP last weekend, Formula 1 hosts its next race in Azerbaijan next weekend. Amid this, they have a week off, and Norris looked to have utilized this by showing his presence in a MotoGP race weekend in Italy itself.
In a recent clip uploaded on Instagram by MotoGP, Norris, the McLaren racer, who is fighting for the F1 Championship, rode the scooter with Martin, the reigning MotoGP World Champion, at the Misano World Circuit and arrived at the paddock.
Here is the video clip involving the F1 racer with the MotoGP star:
Coming into the 2025 season, Jorge Martin ranks 20th in the championship with 29 points. Marc Marquez of Ducati Lenovo Team is leading the championship with 487 points.
On the other hand, Lando Norris is trailing the F1 Drivers' Championship by 31 points. His teammate, Oscar Piastri, is leading the championship with 324 points, while reigning champion Max Verstappen is in P3 with 230 points.
Lando Norris shared risk element in F1 title battle
Lando Norris, the championship contender for the 2025 season, shared his opinion on the risk element while competing for the title. Speaking to the media, he said:
"As much as we want to win races and get into second or third at times – and maybe at some points we could’ve taken more risks – I think both, for a little while now, we’ve understood the risk element a bit more for a while now."
“I think we know when we need to take a risk – in qualifying and things like that – and we also know that during a race, maybe for one more point, you might not risk anything. But for the win? Then you would risk more," he further added.
Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have been tough competitors this year. The British racer has five wins, four pole positions and 13 podium finishes to his name in 16 races, while Piastri has seven wins, five pole positions, and 14 podiums under his belts.
