McLaren leader shuns cautious approach in tussle with teammate Piastri for the title
-
McLaren’s Lando Norris is set to join an exclusive club in Formula One history with his 150th start at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
The Briton, once deemed a prospective phenom, can live up to all the hype he received in his youth and move even closer to his maiden drivers' championship with a positive result in Sin City on Nov 23.
He has been locked in a heated championship duel with teammate Oscar Piastri throughout the season.
Piastri started the campaign with four wins in the first six Grands Prix and spent most of the season atop the drivers' standings.
He led Norris by as many as 34 points after the Briton retired towards the end of August’s Dutch Grand Prix due to a mechanical failure.
Since that fateful day at Zandvoort, Norris has five podiums in six races and enters Las Vegas coming off consecutive victories at Mexico City and Brazil.
On the other hand, his Australian rival has landed on the podium only once and was forced to retire in Azerbaijan.
