Norris expects a close battle between McLaren and Red Bull, though he believes other teams could also be in the mix.
The Briton added: "Probably the same as here. I don’t think it’ll change that much. It’s close between us and Red Bull — one weekend they're a little bit quicker, the next we’re a little bit faster.
"You know, Mercedes was quickest in Singapore. So, yes, you can have many different things here, but we’re going to see."
