Lando Norris ‘ready to bring fight to every race’ in 2025

Norris was speaking on the BBC’s new podcast F1: Back at Base, How to Go Racing, which follows the McLaren and Aston Martin teams over the final 10 races of the 2024 season.

The series, narrated by American actor Josh Hartnett, goes inside the teams’ factories in Woking and Silverstone.

The podcast spoke to those at the center of operations, including team leaders Andrea Stella and Jack Brown at McLaren, Mike Craik and Andy Cowell at Aston Martin and drivers Norris, Oscar Piastri, double world champion Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll.

At McLaren, Norris and Piastri teamed up to bring the Constructors’ Championship back to the team’s Woking headquarters for the first time since 1998.

Piastri, who is also a first-time F1 winner in 2024, said of the series: “I think I have definitely improved from my rookie season.

“In qualifying, I made life a little more difficult for myself than I wanted, but the positive thing in it has been that I have the ability to come forward in the race and regain the lead.

“It’s now a case of bringing everything together rather than trying to fill some missing holes, which I think was the case last season.”
