Max about Lando: "We are friends, now- we are not best friends, it's not like I call him day-to-day, both of us have our own best friends, like that's how you grow up, right? but we are friends! I have a lot of respect for him." " The media sometimes asks some questions with a bit of a.. silly question, and then you give a bit of an answer because you're a bit pressured, you're in this championship fight, i find it a bit unfair how for example Lando gave a comment, and a lot of fans fall out over it like: 'he's not respectful' or the other way around aswell, from my side." "We respect eachother a lot, ofcourse at times we are under a lot of pressure, we had our moments together, clashes and stuff like that, but at the end of the day we can always look eachother in the eye and appreciate what we are doing, we have a lot of respect on and off track." "He's a great guy honestly, he's a great driver also, and I am sure also his time will come, that he will win titles."
i think people understimate how online the drivers, and max are. and he is protective about his friends/loved ones and to see people send hate to a friend of his On His Behalf is probably super fucking weird. because if he knows where he stands with lando, then what are you defending him from?? but will this lead to a moment of self reflection from said fans... of course not
lando norris winning the abu dhabi grand prix, his absolute masterclass from pole to finish, leading the entire 58 laps i could cry from how perfect he is and how perfect that drive was
lando norris, mclaren's golden boy, their project, the one thats been with them since their worst to their best, loyal through thick and thin has just got them their first world constructor championship in 26 years, who else to do it if not him?
from first time race winner in miami to getting his team that championship, 2024 has been all sorts of emotion for him and us as fans
to being the only driver to have the closest margin since 2021 in the wdc to challenge max, to having most poles in a single season for a mclaren driver in the teams history to being the one to bring his team to victory
this is for future world champion lando norris, next year is your year
