JAKARTA - McLaren Racer Lando Norris wants to take maximum action in the 2024 Canadian Formula 1 (F1) Grand Prix (GP) at the Gilles-Villeneuve Circuit, Montreal with 70 laps on Monday 10 June at 01.00 WIB.
This was said by Norris after he claimed P3 on the grid, Sunday 9 June WIB with a difference of 0.021 seconds from Mercedes racers George Russell and Red Bull Max Verstappen who occupy P1 and P2 with the same time record of 1 minute 12 seconds.
When it's very close, you always think, 'Can I take the car for a longer time?' The third position is a good job we do, so I'm happy and excited for tomorrow," Norris said, quoted from the official F1 website, Sunday, June 9, confiscated by Antara.
"The car is good throughout the season, especially in the last three or four races we have performed well, but there are two racers who are very fast up front, many fast riders are behind, so we will have a good show tomorrow," he continued.
The qualifying session in Montreal did not go completely smoothly, given the threat of rain continuing. However, when asked about his concerns Norris admitted that this challenge was part of the attractiveness of the Gilles-Villeneuve Circuit.
"That's Montreal, that's why we love being here," he explained. This is one of the best places to visit every year. I like it. That's why we all smile, we have fun," he continued.

With two McLaren riders in the top four and two Mercedes and Red Bull teams placing only one rider above him, Piastri is quite optimistic that the race in Montreal will go well for his team.
"Ferrari is far behind, Red Bull only has one car there, so this gives us a good chance for tomorrow," Piastri said.
