Lando Norris explains the crucial wisdom given to him by Daniel Ricciardo: “Something I struggled with a lot…”

Ricciardo’s poor form last season meant he was axed by McLaren so Norris will team with rookie 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2023 F1 driver line-up, th🙈e obvious senior driver 🎀tipped by many as a future star.
Behind-the-scenes of Ricciardo’s awful 2022 which eventually cost him his seat, he was still able to impart words of wisdom𓃲 to Norris.
“I’🌜ve been able to learn a hell of a lot from Daniel,” Norris told .
“His approach to racing, his mentality with it all, through the tough times. how he keeps so strong 𝓰with it all, and has so much belief in himself.
“Tꩵhat is something I struggled with a lot with when I came into Formula 1. And something I’ve been able to learn a lot from him over the past couple of years.
“But even on the d𝕴riving side - how he drives the car in many ways. You can see those instances of what’s made him so good.

“I try to take t🅺🐻hem on board. It’s not an easy thing to do, but the more I’ve been able to learn from him, the better I’ve become, and that’s only a good thing for me.”
Norris finished seventh in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 standings, four places and 85 points above Ricciardo.
🌠He became the only driver outside of Mercedes, Red Bull or Ferrari to score a podium finish at Imola.
Still aged just 23, a decade younger than Ricciardo, Norris may look back on 2022 as the year he gained invaluable knowledge from a true veteran if he is able to eventually fulfil his immense promise in F1.
