McLaren driver, who claimed a maiden Drivers’ crown following a podium finish, began by stating this could be his only chance of tasting title success.
“This might be my only time. I really hope it's not, and I'm confident it's not going to be my only time sitting here alone. It's quite lonely here,” he said during his post-race press conference.
“No one else sat by my side, but I want to enjoy this moment because not many people will ever get to experience what I've managed to experience today.”

Norris continued by detailing that he plans to relish the moment as much as he can before stating he plans to celebrate with his friends and his McLaren team.
“The effect, the feeling it's had on all the people, that makes me so happy. I'm going to celebrate with my friends. I really hope they've ordered many drinks already because I want to go and party with them,” he added.
“This is more about them than it is about me – my mechanics, my engineers. We’ve got a test on Tuesday morning,” Norris concluded.
