Lando Norris
McLaren
Lando Norris blends sharp humour with serious pace. Progressing through the McLaren junior ranks, he matured into a grand prix winner and team leader, often extracting standout results when the car is not always the class of the field. In 2025 he reached the summit: he became Formula One World Drivers’ Champion with McLaren, topping the standings on 423 points after a season-long battle with Max Verstappen and team-mate Oscar Piastri. He added multiple grand prix victories across the year — including breakthrough wins at Monaco, Silverstone, and Interlagos — and helped McLaren secure the 2025 Constructors’ Championship.
