Norris: Verstappen is one of the "best drivers ever in Formula 1"

Lando Norris claimed that it is "almost impossible" to be "as good" as four-time world champion Max Verstappen, as he is one of the "best drivers ever in Formula 1."

Norris told ESPN: "I don't want to say or believe that I will ever be as good as Max because I think that is the wrong thing to tell myself.

"And it is hard to beat someone who was born into an F1 seat, if I could go back and choose how to be a better driver, I would also have a mum and dad who were racing drivers, start when you are a baby in the paddock, start karting at whatever age he did and do more testing than everyone else."

Stewards share Leclerc-Norris pit lane incident verdict

Ferrari has received a €10,000 fine from the stewards following Charles Leclerc's incident with Lando Norris in FP2.

Leclerc and Norris collided in FP2 with around 12 minutes remaining, which prompted Leclerc to be investigated for an unsafe release.

Leclerc said: "It looked like they were going out at the same time, so he thought they would go out slower, so I didn’t have a message to stop."

Piastri tops FP2 after Norris and Leclerc collide in the pit lane!

Oscar Piastri topped an exciting FP2 session at the Singapore Grand Prix with two red flags and a pit lane incident.

Max Verstappen set the third-fastest time in his RB21, equipped with a new front wing update, finishing behind championship leader Piastri and Isack Hadjar.

Lando Norris ended the session in fifth after being caught up in an incident with Charles Leclerc in the pit lane.

Why doesn't Piastri have a grid penalty for the Singapore GP?

Last weekend in Baku, Oscar Piastri received a five-second time penalty for a false start, just before crashing into the barriers and ending his race on the opening lap.

Because of this, the Australian was unable to serve the penalty in the pits as is customary, and he will not carry it over to the next Grand Prix in Singapore either, unlike Lewis Hamilton at Monza, who had to serve his sanction (10-seconds penalty) following a penalty handed down just before the start of the Dutch GP.

The guidelines state that "in cases where there is a single 5s penalty which a driver is unable to serve due to retirement, the Stewards will not convert that into a grid penalty for a subsequent race."

Verstappen 'not stressed' about 2025 title

Four-time World Champion Max Verstappen discussed his chances of winning the title this season after his glorious victory over McLaren in Baku.

Verstappen said: "Well from my side honestly I just see it as a race by race thing," Verstappen began when asked about his chances of retaining the title.

"69 points is still a lot, especially if you look at how the season has gone so far. McLaren has been incredibly dominant, that doesn't suddenly change.

"So for me, I'm not too stressed about anything. I'm just enjoying what I'm doing in F1, outside of it, having fun. Just trying to do the best I can every single time that I jump in the car.

"Some tracks naturally will be a bit better for us, some probably a bit worse. Maybe this one a bit worse."If we win it, we win it. Great. If we don't, we don't. Life goes on. I'm just not too stressed about anything."

The gap to the current championship leader, Oscar Piastri, has been cut down to 69 points.

Hamilton's first weekend after passing of Roscoe

"[It was] quite overwhelming to be honest to see just how many people Roscoe touched around the world."

- Lewis Hamilton

It is set to be Lewis Hamilton's first race weekend without his beloved pet Roscoe, after he passed away last Sunday at the age of 12.

Hamilton shared that he has received "overwhelming" support and "tons of messages" since the passing of Roscoe.

"I've not been able to reply to everybody, but he was the most important thing in my life, so it was a very difficult experience.

"I know so many people in the world have gone through it and know what it's like to have a pet that gives you such amazing love, and it's an amazing experience.

"But, I'm really just looking forward to now just getting back in the car and doing what I love doing here."
