Lando Norris said the disappointing results this year were frustrating

Lando Norris, speaking in the same interview, expressed sadness with the below par results this year. McLaren are currently fifth in the constructors championship, thirteen points behind Alpine. Norris said: "Until then it’s a patience game, which is not the nicest thing because I do get frustrated, like this year we’re not as competitive as what we want to be. So is the whole team, like James [Key] and everyone understands we should have taken a step forward this year and if anything we are a little bit back from where we were." The team had a disappointing finish last weekend in Suzuka. The team only managed to score a single point, courtesy of a 10th place finish. Lando Norris has consistently been performing in the slow car while his teammate Daniel Ricciardo has failed to score much this year. Ricciardo was announced to leave the team next year, with Oscar Piastri replacing the eight-time Grand Prix winner. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
