Lando Norris: McLaren has an excellent car - probably on average, the fastest in Peloton. But this is not enough
4.05.2025
Norris does not consider the advantage of McLaren in the speed of dominant. The pilot of McLaren Lando Norris said that he was surprised by the statements of some rivals and journalists that their car is much faster than competitors.
In particular, Norris asked why, supposedly, a great advantage in speed, he did not manage to overtake Charles Lecler at the Grand Prix of Saudi Arabia.
I don’t know why people are so surprised, because Ferrari was not inferior to us in speed in qualification, and in most sessions of the weekend in Gidd. People carry all this nonsense only because we are quick in practices. Well, they can continue to say what they want, but we do not think that we are very ahead of competitors, and this is visible on the highway.
Max Ferstappen was probably the fastest pilot at the Saudi Grand Prix of Saudi, so we are still waiting for a lot of work. People continue to say that we are the fastest and blah blah blah, but, again, we are simply fast in practitioners, and in qualification we almost do not add in speed.
It’s just that we have this method of work, it is more convenient for us to optimize the machine, and if we worked differently, we would be even slower. I am satisfied with how we work. People just need to adjust their ideas. Yes, we have a great car - probably on average, it is really the fastest in Peloton. But now this is obviously not enough, ”Norris said.
Megacontract of the new leader F-1-$ 100 million and knocked out to victories over Ferteppen!
