The McLaren driver captures his first F1 victory in thrilling fashion.
Madeline's got our first breakdown of how Norris took the checkered flag today. The key line: "It came down to fresher tires versus the faster car — and Norris controlled it."Points scorers include Yuki Tsunoda in P7, making this a very strong weekend for RB considering Ricciardo's P4 in yesterday's sprint.
In that sense, Sunday’s Miami Grand Prix should come as a sigh of relief to F1 and Liberty Media, its American owner. Lando Norris, one of the most popular drivers on one of the most popular teams, is an F1 race winner at long last. That’s exactly the type of thing American fans need to see in order to keep tuning in week after week. No one is under the illusion Verstappen and Red Bull won’t continue to dominate, but Miami at least showed it's not a foregone conclusion, and is therefore worth watching.
But at least it buys some time and might encourage viewers to stick around when they otherwise seemed to be on the verge of finding something else to watch. Norris is sounding very relaxed on the radio. He was asked about possible tire choices in the event of a safety car and talked quite easily about options. Now just a case of ticking down the laps.“I’ll probably lose it at some point if I do win — hopefully!” he told our own Luke Smith just recently. "My time is coming."That gap is increasing at the front, now well over three seconds. This really is Lando Norris's race to lose.
