An intensive two weeks await the Formula 1 drivers, in which they will first be in action in Baku and then have to travel straight to Canada. Lando Norris is enthusiastic about the Baku City Circuit and can't wait to race there again.

In a press release from McLaren, he said he is looking forward to going to Baku again, especially given the unexpected twists and turns in the 2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. After Max Verstappen's retirement and Lewis Hamilton's mistake on the restart, Norris managed to cross the finish line in fifth place.

"It’s cool to be at another street circuit and last year’s race showed that anything can happen," explained the McLaren driver. "It will be great to see what we can do in the new cars around this unique circuit."

Norris was recently hit by a hefty throat infection, which affected him in both Barcelona and Monaco. The weekend off did him good, as he is now back to his old self. "I’ve recovered well after a tough two weeks," said the young Brit, who is therefore looking forward to the upcoming race full of energy again.
