Lando Norris feels George Russell's pole position at the HungarianGP wasn't a surprise given the pace of the Mercedes F1 car this season Full story ⬇️
Regarding passing he said:"It will be a little bit better than previous years, it won't be as difficult, that's just a fact with these cars. But at the same time, I'm hoping it's not too much better, because it will make their life even more difficult."
McLaren boss Andreas Seidl acknowledged that outscoring the Alpine drivers is a priority for McLaren. "I wouldn't say we necessarily just focus on the Alpines,” said the German. “The most important thing is first and foremost to do our own race, to execute a clean race, clean pitstops, and see the chequered flag.
“Then of course it will be important, because that's our main competitor for this P4, to stay ahead of the Alpine cars. Hopefully Daniel will be in a position to maybe make up one or the other position, maybe in the first lap, or also later in the race. “It's not clear at the moment what the strategies will look like here. So hopefully this opens further opportunities, and then the target is clear, score more points than Alpine."
