Praise from the boss
McLaren's Andreas Seidl was impressed with the Brit's drining and thinks that he has seen Norris take a real step up this season.
“Lando is flying at the moment, he’s definitely made the next step as a driver also,” Seidl told Sky Sports after the race.
“Already in Bahrain (the season-opener) you could see that he definitely made the next step, as a person. He digested last season with his engineering team in the right way.
“It’s normal also that these young guys make steps, in the first years they have to make it or they will never make it to the top but it’s just great how he’s pulling it off,” added Seidl.
“He has the confidence to put the laps in and what he did today was great.”
