LANDO NORRIS - NEW F3 EUROPEAN CHAMPION

F3 - LANDO NORRIS IS THE NEW FIA FORMULA 3 EUROPEAN CHAMPION
"Lando Norris (Carlin) has done it, the Brit is the new FIA Formula 3 European Champion. For the young talent, who is backed by the McLaren Formula 1 team, second place behind race winner Joel Eriksson (Motopark) was enough to seal the title. "

It is interested when this new talented Britain's driver will take place in the Formula 1 team?

Norris is a big big talent. I think he'll be reserve at Mclaren next year and then take the seat in 2019 when Alonso leaves.

Looking forward to seeing him in F2 next year - hopefully fighting with George Russell who is also pretty top notch.

Lando Norris could replace Jenson Button as McLaren's third driver

And is interesting is Norris new Button or is he new Hamilton?
Or maybe Lando will have his own style?

The only other driver to beat Prema in F3 in recent years was some guy called Max.

Great things expected.

 

[RasputinLives]

I agree with the sentiment Galahad but this man...

.....had a good laugh when you said some guy called Max beat Prema!

 

[RasputinLives]

Speaking of Prema - Lawrence Stroll has apparently vetoed Norris joining the Prema F2 team next year in favour of Sean Gelael (chicken jokes on standby) and Nick De Vris.

Norris looks like ending up at ART.

(chicken jokes on standby)

I've washed my hands of those jokes. (With a lemon-based wipe.)

Not sure F1 can handle a driver with a sense of humour.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Its OK Greenlantern101 McLaren will soon suck the life out of him.
