Lando Norris Targets Max Verstappen at Austrian Grand Prix Amid Tightening F1 Title Race

Posted : 27 June 2024

Lando Norris aims to disrupt Max Verstappen's dominance this weekend at the Austrian Grand Prix, held at Red Bull's home circuit. Following two consecutive second-place finishes, Norris is determined to reduce his 69-point gap in the championship standings and believes he has the car and confidence needed for victory.

 

The 24-year-old McLaren driver acknowledged his recent errors but remains optimistic about his chances. "We're on a roll and we're doing well," Norris said, emphasizing the need to refine his performance. Confident in his car's capabilities, he expressed his belief that they are consistently within striking distance of the top spots.

 

Norris attributed his failure to convert pole position into a win at the Spanish Grand Prix to his own mistakes but noted his competitive streak since winning the Miami Grand Prix in May. His recent performances have seen him finish within four seconds of Verstappen at several races, making him a significant contender in the title race.

 

Red Bull team boss Christian Horner anticipates a challenging weekend, acknowledging McLaren's and Norris's recent improvements. Horner noted the increased competition from Ferrari and Mercedes as well, highlighting the tightened field on the short lap circuit.

 

Meanwhile, Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell are optimistic, with Russell confident in their ability to make significant strides and win races this season. As Verstappen seeks his fifth win at the circuit, he is also poised to extend his record of leading the championship for 50 consecutive races.
