Lando Norris: I was ready to take the chance.
Lando Norris finished second in the sprint of the Canadian Grand Prix, taking advantage of Kimi Antonelli's missteps in his battle with George Russell. The McLaren driver is pleased with how the short Saturday race went.
Lando Norris: "Good race. It was great just to watch the fight ahead. I was ready to take my chance when it came, but overall they were quick.
Kimi caught up to me quickly, so there were reasons for concern. But at the same time, I wanted to attack George ahead, so it was fun. It's difficult to attack on this track as it's easy to make a mistake, but today we achieved a good result."
