Norris: Max is not driving the race very smart

      In Miami, Lando Norris won Saturday's sprint, finished second in the main race, but was not entirely satisfied with the weekend's results, losing to his teammate again.…

      Q: Lando, great performance! Was it difficult to break through from sixth place?Lando Norris: It was interesting and fun. I didn't want to let Oscar go too far, but in the first quarter or third of the race, I had to put a lot of effort into getting around Mercedes, getting around Williams, getting around Max.

      It was a difficult start, of course, but I made it forward pretty quickly, I think. The car was very fast today, which helps a lot.

      Question: What do you think about the next battle with Verstappen?Lando Norris: He always fights with all his might, but it's up to him. He ruins everything himself. Max is not very smart at driving the race. Maybe he and I could have finished first and second today, but he himself dropped out of the fight for the lead. So yes, he's fighting, that's always to be expected, but things are different.

      Q: Lando, when you came in second with ten seconds left, did you hope to catch up with Oscar?Lando Norris: I did my best to get to second place. There was enough time left, 25-30 laps, and I stopped attacking closer to the finish.

      The gap was reduced from almost ten to four or three seconds. I did everything I could. I attacked the whole race, right to the end. I believed that I could force the fight, but Oscar rode well too. He's a fast racer. I'm almost there. There just weren't enough laps.
