Formula 1 is about to begin. In the first weekend the F1 will take place in Austria for the first race of the year, after the season was postponed due to the coronavirus.

Finally driving again

Lando Norris expects the first race to be a big challenge for the drivers who have not been able to drive for months. "It's not going to be easy for all of the drivers, but I think we're all very good at what we do and I don't think it would take us too long, probably laps really, to get back in the hang of really how to drive the car", he says to Autosport.
"But putting the body straight into a triple-header, physically, is probably going to be a bigger challenge jumping in than actually getting up to speed with the car", the McLaren driver continues.

Formula 3 test

Norris has chosen to test with his old Formula 3 team Carlin. Although it is not an F1 car, according to Norris the test was very useful. "This was our first day back driving and it was drizzling all day, it was horrible but I wasn't complaining, I think it was good fun, it was nice to be back driving a real car again. It was good to be back."
