Norris steals headlines worldwide after seizing F1 championship lead

The Italian outlet highlighted the outstanding weekend of the British driver, who delivered a superb performance at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez — starting with an uncontested pole on Saturday and following it up with an equally commanding win on race day.

“It’s a world-class Lando Norris on display in Mexico,” wrote the outlet. “The Brit dominated the Mexican Grand Prix to seize the lead in the championship with four rounds to go. Flawless from the start and relentless in pace, the McLaren driver sent a clear warning to his title rivals.

The Spanish newspaper also highlighted the McLaren driver’s performance in Mexico, describing it as a “Verstappen-style” weekend — a dominant victory never in doubt, capped off by his rise to the top of the championship standings.

“Lando Norris took Max Verstappen’s ‘perfect’ Austin weekend quite literally,” wrote the Spanish outlet.

The Spanish newspaper described Norris’s weekend in Mexico as “extraordinary,” noting that he now looks ready to fight for the title all the way to the end with four races remaining.

“Norris claimed victory and gave McLaren reason to celebrate again on Mexican soil,” wrote the outlet. “The last time the Woking-based team triumphed at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez was back in 1989 — before Lando was even born. The Brit capped off an extraordinary weekend after taking both pole position and the race win.

“In a Grand Prix filled with excitement, strategy, and speed, this victory brings him even closer to the championship lead and proves that McLaren are ready to fight for the drivers’ crown all the way to the end.”
