LANDO NORRIS is being helped over his mugging ordeal by McLaren boss Zak Brown. Norris, third last time out in Austria, was praised by fourth-placed Lewis Hamilton as “such a great driver” after they battled for more than 20-odd laps. That was the first time I was really racing against Valtteri Bottas and the first time to be racing Lewis for more than one corner!. “It was awesome to hear what he said — more than if it had come from any other driver.”. We are nine races into a season of 23, if we do all of them. Wolff believes that home support can have a positive impact on Hamilton, who has won the race a record seven times.
