carlos sainz in the media pen: “happy for lando as a driver, he’s quicker than people give him credit for…but more than anything i’m happy for him as a person, he was very open about his struggles, he’s proven to everyone you can be champion as a nice guy” 🥹
Lando Norris - a racer who, in embracing his vulnerability, has found by far his greatest strength. He never shied away from his struggles, has been honest and open about his fragility, yet fought and found the resolve to achieve his greatest dream. A champion and an inspiration.
important reminder for today.
however the race plays out, NONE of the driver or team members deserve any kind of hate or abuse. they are all driving their own race, trying to achieve their dreams and help their teams to get the best result possible.

Btw.
You can be a fan of a driver whilst handing out respect to other drivers when they do well.
The lengths people are going to discredit Lando like he’s not been monstrously fast all weekend is just wild.
Sometimes you just gotta give credit when it’s due.
before you speak about "strong mentality" "ice nerves" just compare how piastri reacted about singapore and how norris reacted about cota
one cried on the radio and complained a whole weekend, the other one said nothing
judging someone by the idea you made of them, is wrong
