Norris braces for 'difficult' Las Vegas GP despite back-to-back wins
November 19, 2025
|The Mercury
FRESH off consecutive victories in Mexico and Brazil, championship leader Lando Norris, has tempered expectations ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, admitting that McLaren could face their toughest weekend of the season under the Strip’s cold night lights.
-
Norris, who now holds a 24-point advantage over teammate Oscar Piastri, was blunt when asked whether Las Vegas conditions might help McLaren this year.
“Hinder, for sure. I think it was our worst race last year, so I’m not really looking forward to it,” Norring told Sky Sports.
McLaren struggled in Vegas in 2023, with Norris finishing sixth and Piastri seventh despite having a title-winning car. The low-temperature sessions and unusually slippery surface exposed weaknesses McLaren has worked to address over the past 12 months.
