McLaren’s Lando Norris has accumulated a total of 199 points in the 2024 Driver’s Championship. The McLaren F1 driver has unexpectedly found himself in contention for the 2024 world championship, trailing by only 78 points. Moving forward, Norris aims to avoid any major mistakes that could jeopardize his chances.
Despite winning just one Grand Prix this year, Norris has consistently performed well, often finishing on the podium. He believes that even if he doesn’t win, consistently being in the top positions is beneficial for both himself and McLaren.
Norris has been a standout performer in the 2024 F1 season, proving to be a formidable rival for Max Verstappen. The two drivers even had a collision during the Austrian GP. As the season enters its second half, Norris and the McLaren F1 team are optimistic and eager to deliver even better performances.
The team principal of McLaren has confirmed plans to introduce several upgrades for the remaining races. The battle for the Constructors Championship is expected to be a fierce competition between Red Bull, McLaren, Mercedes, and Ferrari. With only 10 races left, Norris and his team cannot afford any mistakes, despite currently holding second place.
Mercedes, led by their team principal, has won three out of the last four races before the summer break and shows no signs of slowing down. Ferrari, known for their strength in the sport, should not be underestimated. With all these factors in mind, the second half of the ongoing campaign promises to be an exciting spectacle.
