Lando Norris

McLaren F1 Team

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Norris' fourth season in Formula One- and subsequent fourth season with McLaren - was a bit of a step down from his 2021 season performance-wise, as both himself and former teammate Daniel Ricciardo expressed frustration with the consistency of the car at times during the year. A lack of front-end grip is seemingly to blame for Norris' singular podium finish in 2022, despite him being the only driver not out of the Top 3 constructors (Red Bull, Ferrari, and Mercedes) to do so. Regardless of the car's shortcomings, Norris was able to get a bit more performance out of his MCL36 than his previous teammate during the season and was McLaren's primary points-winner in the battle for the Constructor's Championship. Finishing in the Top 10 sixteen times over the course of the season, the driver of the No. 4 made a valiant effort to keep his team in the running- only for Alpine to end up finishing ahead of McLaren, clinching fourth-place by 14 points. This season, Norris hopes to make a statement as one of the more talented youths on the grid but will have to overcome yet another temperamental car if McLaren is unable to address the issues identified in 2022.

Claims Formula 1 Championship
Formula One
December 7, 2025
Norris soaked up the pressure of a nervy Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to finish on the podium and in turn secure the F1 Drivers' Championship for the first time - following rivals Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri home, Formula1.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Norris would roll off P2 on the grid and would soon fall into the clutches of his teammate, Oscar Piastri, on the opening lap. Norris would slip to P3 but would run a managed and smart race from there. The McLaren star would repel multiple attacks from Charles Leclerc during the evening on the Yas Marina Circuit and would hold strong until the end. Norris would cross the finish line in third-place at nearly 4-seconds behind Piastri. The finish was good enough to clinch the 2025 World Championship for Norris.
