Lando Norris wants his first victory in Formula 1. Like many others. However, he is now in a great place to achieve it, since McLaren has worked ‘magic’ in the evolution of his car to have a car on track capable of fighting to win. Yes, what seemed unthinkable in Bahrain is now a fact.
One that has led him to be the great rival of Max Verstappen and to step on, once again, a Formula 1 podium. Now, after Austria, the United Kingdom and Hungary, three completely different trackstouch a Belgian GP in which it would no longer be a surprise to see them fighting against Red Bull.
It is exactly where Mercedes would like to be, but despite the evolutions the car is still not what Hamilton, for example, wants it to be. Lewis, on the radio, occasionally complained about the slowness of the W13… as Russell moved from 18th to just ahead of the two Ferraris in sixth.
That is where the young Englishman from McLaren wanted to put the focus. because, for him, Lewis has a subject pending in F1. A lesson to learn. Because, despite all the years it takes, there is something he doesn’t know.
“He has never raced with a car like this”
“Hamilton has never raced with a car that is last or penultimate“he insists.
And he continues: “It’s the only thing he hasn’t done. He complained about what It was all complicated.”
He is not the only one who has said something like that, since there are many who on the grid have focused on the superiority that Hamilton has pretty much always had when it comes to the car.
With McLaren, he fought for the World Cup in the year of his debut. He won it in 2008, and he always fought to achieve it again until his departure to Mercedes. After a year of acclimatization, the German team was the best until in 2021 Max Verstappen took the title on the last lap in Abu Dhabi.
