Norris flattered after Marko flirts over Red Bull future: 'Always nice'

Lando Norris' Formula 1 season seems to be taking more and more shape. Something that has also already been noticed by Red Bull man Helmut Marko. Recently, the 80-year-old man from Graz already revealed that Norris is something for Red Bull. This has not gone unnoticed by the McLaren driver himself, who still has a contract until 2025.

"It's good for your ego. Everyone would have that," the Englishman told Viaplay over the weekend of the Singapore Grand Prix. "Seeing or hearing something positive about yourself is always nice, but it doesn't change anything. I'll keep doing what I was already doing," the British McLaren driver continued.

"It's always nice to hear that from people who reasonably know what's going on. These people know who the best, and who the not so good drivers are. It's always nice to hear such noises from them," concluded Oscar Piastri's talented teammate.

The Englishman from Bristol has already managed to bag 79 points for the papaya-coloured team this season. This point total is good for eighth place in the world championship.
