It was not an easy weekend at the Australian Grand Prix, but McLaren and, in particular, Lando Norris, managed to win with exemplary professionalism, without giving up even for a moment the chance of victory. In Woking, I do not hide the fact that I expect similar successes and continue...
This is what Lando Norris said, who declared: the best in 2025 is McLaren, and whoever wants to become world champion must beat them:
"We know very well that we still have a lot of work to do on this year's car. We can't rest on our laurels, if we relax in this situation, we will lose, and if we think everything is fine, then they will overtake us. We will not do this favor!"
But we see and feel that this year we are the favourites, the team has done a sensational job, our car is simply flying. But we are aware that there will be races where we will suffer too. For example, if the season opener had been in Bahrain, I don't think we would have won... But it is a fact that this year we will be the team that someone has to beat if they want to fight for the world title. We have two drivers at the front, who will push each other, and Oscar Piastri will not often do himself the favor of making mistakes. Even in qualifying we were strong because we motivated each other and we got the last tenths out of the car. So, the car is good, but our team is very strong and this is just the beginning,” Norris stressed.
