“Hearing from what I am hearing, he has accepted that this 🍎is what he now has to🥃 do, to change.

“This is a really good moment where many drivers are thinking the same as Max has done. It is going to ♎be massively inte🦋resting to see who comes out on the top next year.

“It might well be scrappy next year but that’s what you want in Formula 1, some s🦋harp elbowsꦡ, allied to common sense. Max loads pressure on everyone.”

Norris accepts he has to improve

Norris himself has bee𝐆n open about the fact he needs to “step it🐷 up” next season.
