Australian Grand Prix: Lando Norris and McLaren ‘as perfect as it is possible to be in most difficult of conditions’
“It’s easy to make mistakes, it’s easy to destroy everything, you know? It’s so fast that it can go wrong in a second.
“Any second of any game, you locked, you hit the white line, you have a big snapshot, and sometimes it’s hard not to get stuck in a hole or a tire obstacle.
“So it’s like a big enough challenge, but when you change the weather changes and the changes in track conditions, know when the right decision will be made, turn it into smooth tires and stay on Inter-Tyre and then when I’m behind Max and Oscar behind me, I’m even more nervous.
“But that’s what makes it meaningful.
“We worked a lot in the winter and prepared for a game like this because this is where we threw away a lot of opportunities last season.
“Canada, Silverstone, we were not the best prepared and knew the decisiveness we had to make, today we were very, very decisive and called for the five-meter box before I packed it, but it was the ultimate call and ultimately won our game.”
The game is not over yet.
Norris put Verstappen behind him in the last five laps after the last restart. McLaren was hampered by huge floor damage – which happened in the above discount or in the last lap of the sixth round, but he hung up, although Verstappen was behind less than a second and was out of the aid with DRS.
