In the solitary practice session for the 2025 Chinese Grand Prix, it was Lando Norris who stole the spotlight, leaving Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc trailing in his wake. To the surprise of many, Max Verstappen was notably absent from the leading pack, languishing in the disappointing 15th position.

Norris, demonstrating exceptional prowess on the track, clocked a 1:31.504, the fastest time of the session, leaving him a significant 0.454s ahead of second-placed Leclerc. Norris’s teammate, Oscar Piastri, rounded off the top three, albeit over six-tenths slower than his lead counterpart.

However, the practice session was not without its share of drama. In the closing stages, an unexpected red flag was raised when Jack Doohan’s Alpine vehicle broke down on the track. This unfortunate incident, coupled with a host of spins and errant maneuvers, added a dose of adrenaline to the proceedings.

The practice session paints an interesting picture for the upcoming Chinese Grand Prix, with Norris firmly in the driver’s seat. It remains to be seen if Verstappen can bounce back from his disappointing practice performance to challenge the leaders in the main event. Stay tuned as we bring you more updates from the world of Formula 1.
