Schumacher has advice for Norris

Ralf Schumacher analysed the situation at Sky Germany. "As a driver, you are always most angry with yourself when you make mistakes and he admits them. He probably doesn't know himself why he crashed into it, or he had no grip at the front. Of course, these are all small things that have a big impact and that shouldn't happen,'' the German said.

The strong teammate Norris has also plays a role in this story, according to Schumacher. "It can happen, but it shouldn't happen. He urgently needs to change that little thing, otherwise the relatively cool Piastri will overtake him at some point when he has it all together in the race."

A mental coach could be another godsend for Norris. "For more confidence, to get calmer, with relaxation exercises and things like that. You do it with whatever music you choose, you concentrate on something. Skiers are brilliant, they go down that piste to the exact second, you don't have that in motorsport. Everyone does it in their own way. Some don't need it, but Lando I think could use some support,'' Schumacher said.
