Lando Norris, the British driver from McLaren, emphasized that his team’s car is at most the third fastest in the 2024 Formula 1 season, despite his recent victory in Miami. McLaren introduced a comprehensive package of upgrades in the previous round, which unlocked the car’s potential and helped Norris secure his first win. Although Norris set faster laps than Max Verstappen, who was driving a damaged car, there are rumors that McLaren may have a faster package. Norris believes McLaren will be even more competitive in Imola this weekend, as it has historically been a successful track for the team. However, Norris acknowledges that McLaren still needs to make additional improvements to consistently challenge Ferrari and Red Bull this season. Despite the upgrades, Norris categorically states that McLaren is still in third place in the standings.
