celebrated his first Formula 1 victory at the Miami Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton , a former McLaren driver himself, encouraged the young Brit to extend his stay and enjoy the celebrations. Hamilton expressed joy over McLaren's resurgence and Norris's significant achievement.
Starting from fifth on the grid, Norris quickly became a focal point of the race, navigating through a field that included a near-miss collision involving Sergio Perez and a staunch defense from Ferrari's Charles Leclerc. The race's dynamics dramatically shifted following a crash between Kevin Magnussen and Logan Sargeant, which brought out the safety car. McLaren seized this opportunity, making a strategically timed pit stop that catapulted Norris into the lead.
Norris said:"I've finally delivered for the team. About time. It's been a long time coming, but finally, I've done it. I'm over the moon." He added,"The whole weekend has been good. I've had little setbacks along the way. I knew on Friday I had the pace, today we managed to put it together with the perfect strategy. I'm just proud. A lot of people doubted me along the way. I've made mistakes over the last five years, but we put it together today.
