Lando Norris and Max Verstappen (Via: Imago) The McLaren F1 racing team’s driver has been asking for an improvement in performance to challenge the current three-time world champion. The Dutch driver has dominated the sport, securing three world championships since 2021. Max Verstappen has claimed victory in 19 races during the 2023 season and has already won five out of the seven races this year. The 26-year-old driver has shown total dominance and aims to maintain the same level of performance in the current season.
However, Lando Norris has encouraged his fellow drivers to embrace the idea of putting Verstappen in a difficult position, performing at their best abilities. Norris himself has been in excellent form this season, with the MCL38 car proving to be a strong competitor against the Red Bull RB20.
Both McLaren and Ferrari have shown an improvement in their pace this season and have developed cars that can compete with Red Bull. As the season progresses, fans can expect an intense battle between Ferrari, McLaren, and Red Bull for the driver’s and constructor’s championships.
Max Verstappen has openly acknowledged the challenges that Red Bull will face in maintaining their lead against McLaren and Ferrari in the Monaco Grand Prix. The team based in Milton Keynes and Verstappen had a good start to the 2024 season, with five wins in seven races. However, they now face strong competition from McLaren, as seen in the Miami GP and last week’s race in Imola.
Verstappen explains the difficulties that Red Bull will face in Monaco, especially due to the RB20 having issues with bumps and kerbs. The Monaco track is a narrow 3.3 km circuit with very little room for errors. The 26-year-old driver hopes that Red Bull can improve their performance for the next race, as they faced challenges during the practices and qualifying for the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.
With the Monaco Grand Prix approaching, fans can look forward to an exciting weekend with a three-way battle. It will be intriguing to see who will come out victorious on a track that demands precision and tests the courage of the drivers.
