Verstappen vs. Norris duel, Lando is ready
Max Verstappen or Lando Norris? The 2024 Formula 1 world championship is entering its most intense stages, and fans can’t give a clear answer to the question of who will be the next world champion. The Dutchman has the experience of a superstar and a 52-point lead in the standings with six weekends remaining, but this advantage only protects him momentarily from the attacks of #4, highly motivated and driving a McLaren that also asserted its dominance in Singapore. And in the United States Grand Prix at the 5.513-kilometre Circuit of The Americas in Austin, they will arrive as clear favorites.
Lando Norris’ comments
“I like going to Austin. The atmosphere is always incredible, and I really enjoy racing there, especially with the fantastic Chrome livery we have this weekend,” commented Lando Norris ahead of the COTA round. “It’s a great race to start the final part of the season after a few weeks off. It’s also a Sprint weekend, which means there are more points up for grabs.” – the British driver added.
“I’ve spent some time at the McLaren Technology Centre in the simulator to prepare for the upcoming triple-header. The next two months will be incredibly busy but also exciting. I’m ready to get back in the car and show Texas what we can do.”
Oscar Piastri’s statements
“It’s nice to get back to racing after a short break,” added Oscar Piastri. “It was good to have a few weeks to recharge, but also to work with my engineers to prepare for the upcoming races. We have great momentum, and it’s just about continuing to get good results on our side. Austin is a really cool place to go, with great fans and amazing food. The Sprint offers some good opportunities, and we also have a Chrome livery that looks fantastic. Let’s aim for another important result for the team.” – the Australian concluded ahead of the United States Grand Prix in Austin.
