Norris ecstatic: 'Carlos was very generous trying to help me get DRS'

Lando Norris can't contain his smile in the pit lane after he claimed his third podium of the season with a second-place finish at the Singapore Grand Prix. Following the race, he shared his thoughts with David Coulthard and praised Carlos Sainz for some help in the final laps.

"Carlos was very generous trying to help me get DRS," Norris explained to the former Red Bull driver, before adding: "It helped my race and also helped his. We knew it would be tough as soon as Mercedes boxed, but we held them off, and we're on the podium. [I'm] super happy."

When asked about George Russell's incident in the final lap of the race, the Brit felt for his compatriot as he did the exact same as Russell, Norris said: "I hit the wall on the same lap, on the same place. I think he copied me and hit it even worse. I feel for him. He was the quickest today, but it helped me a bit, and I could chill during the last couple of corners. We all pushed each other the whole way. It was stressful, but it paid off."
