Lando Norris continues to impress at the wheel of the far-improved McLaren MCL60...
McLaren boss Andrea Stella says Lando Norris can hold his own with the likes of Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso for “natural speed” as he continues to improve.
And the McLaren boss spoke of how Norris is now displaying the quality to dive deep into a half-second like it was an hour, a “very impressive quality” which he shares with such well-respected F1 stars. “You can zoom your telemetry in and make this half a second become the entire laptop screen. But then when you look at the timestamp, you see, ‘Wow, this happened in two-tenths of a second’. So that’s a very impressive quality, which I then associate with the natural speed.”F1 fastest lap: Which drivers have won the most fastest lap points in F1 2023?
And in Norris’ case, Stella says the signs are promising as he spoke of how McLaren need drivers that tip the scales in their favour when success hangs in a 50/50 balance. “The real success factor is in making your race craft bigger and bigger, creating as much as possible adaptability, because you’re never going to have the perfect car, you’re never going to have the perfect situation. It can happen, you may have a dominant car, but this is the best scenario possible.
