During the Austrian Grand Prix, there were several incredible on-track battles, with George Russell vs Fernando Alonso and Charles Leclerc vs Sergio Perez two that standout. However, another example was between Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton.
Having started on the front row, Norris soon became challenged by the quicker Mercedes, but he held up a valiant fight against Hamilton. It took the seven-time world champion several attampts to finally get past the young Brit.
The move may not have mattered in the end, as Norris re-gained that place later in the race thanks to damage suffered by Hamilton, but the Mercedes driver was certainly impressed by Norris' defending.
On team radio, he said "such a great driver, Lando" after finally getting past his compatriot, and after the race, Norris was shown this by SkySports. Here is his reaction.
