Eleven in a row, that’s crazy, said Verstappen in the dark. For 35 years, the legendary drivers Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost worked in such a long McLaren series. The overall Dutch champion won for himself the 43rd vtzstv. It wasn’t the start-close style in Britain, because Norris pushed into the water in front of him, but he led the field from the fifth lap.
I did what I could. I fought with Max as long as I could, said Norris, only losing less than three seconds to the current best pilot in the cli. From the 33rd to the 38th lap, the safety car led the field, after which Kevin Magnussen started to smoke from his haas. Norris also appreciated the fact that he beat the seven-digit champion Hamilton behind him. It was a fight, he added.
After Norris and the two Britons, the Australian Oscar Piastri with a McLaren finished fourth, beating George Russell. The Mexican pilot is no doubt holding the second pole in the race.
