What a day! Norris is in DreamLando

BRIT RUNS RINGS AROUND RIVALS AS HE STORMS TO POLE POSITION

- BY DANIEL MOXON

A BEAMING Lando Norris said he would “savour the moment” after producing the most dominant qualifying performance of the year.

Saturdays have been tough at times for Norris in 2025 but he was more than half a second quicker than anyone else yesterday, by far the biggest pole margin of the season so far.

He will start the Austrian Grand Prix two places ahead of McLaren team-mate and title rival Oscar Piastri, with Charles Leclerc getting the better of the Aussie in his upgraded Ferrari.

But no one ever looked likely to stop Norris, who could not contain his smile as he said: “My Q3 run one was good but I knew there were a few places that, if I just got it right, there was quite a bit more time and I did exactly that.

“So I'm very happy, it's been a good day and a good weekend so far.
