Lando Norris and Bristol City

Bristol City play their home games at Ashton Gate, and the stadium is shared with Premiership Rugby team Bristol Bears. Ashton Gate is located close to the city centre of Bristol. Norris' father, Adam, is friends with Steve Lansdown, the majority shareholder of Bristol City, Bristol Bears and Bristol Flyers. 

Norris once suggested that Bristol City were his childhood club before becoming a Manchester United fan because of Ronaldo. The Portuguese star had two stints at Man Utd, the most successful between 2003 and 2009. Likely when Norris made the switch. He returned in 2021 but grew dissatisfied with the club. 

In a recent interview, Norris confirmed that he no longer watches football and supports no team.
