A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
Lando Norris believes that Red Bull Racing should complain less, after dominating F1 for years. The McLaren driver suggested that the Austrian team could focus better on improving the car.
Norris lashes out at Red Bull Racing
Due to images that surfaced just before the Bahrain race weekend, there is much debate about the flexibility of McLaren's rear wing. Norris was quoted by Reuters: “We’re all fully within the rules.

The Brit continued: “We respect the FIA doing what they're doing and we're happy that they keep trying to correct things because we don't want anyone outside of those rules, but the last ones didn't affect us.”

Norris also has an opinion about those who make judgments based on online images: “How do they know it's the rear wing that's flexing?," he asked. "They don't, it could be the whole car. So, you know, people can just come up with what they want but really they have absolutely no idea..”
