Norris’ future has been the subject of intense speculation in recent months🐻 following McLaren’s terrible start to the 2023 season. 

The 23-year-old Briton is contracted to McLaren until the end of 2025 after signing a new long-term deal last year, but that hasn’t stopped him from been linked with F1’s biggest teams.&♈nbsp;

After an improved showing at the recent Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Norr෴is stressed he has “even more faith” in McLaren to get bacಌk to the front following a major technical restructure. 

But McLaren slipped 🔯back in Miami, with Norris qualifying a lowly 16th and going on to equ𓆏al his worst classified race finish in 17th.

McLaren’s torrid weekend, and Norris’ future, was a topic of debate on the latest episo🌞de of the Sky Sports F1 Podca✤st. 

“Lando is incredible, he’s like ‘this is my team, I’m here for a goo🐼d number of years now and I support them’, but i꧅n the end his chin is going to drop if they’re midfielders at best,” Brundle said. 

"Lando will be looking around. He’s got to be looking around but he's nailed on with the contract and the contract recognit𒁏ion board.

"So he has got a while there and he's got time, he's a young man. But McLaren will have to deliver up for the next 18 months or he'll be scouting ar🏅ound hard.”

Amid McLaren’s worst start to a se🐷ason in decades, Brundle said CEO Zak Brown and everyone at Woking wi༒ll be feeling the pressure. 

"I think what’s unquestionable is Zak’s genius on the f൩inancial side, on the sponsorship and marketing side,” he added. 

"꧅They are restructuring now with Andrea Stella and some ot🎃her people coming into the team. 

"They’ve got a new wind tunnel coming and they are hanging an awful lo🔜t on that feeding into the team very quickly in the next year or two. 

“McLaren in general, and Zak in part✅icular, will be feelin🧸g the pressure. Andrea Seidl has gone off to Alfa Romeo, but that’s not exactly flowing along brilliantly there at the moment, is it? 

“It’s a difficu🥀lt 🍌business and we’ll we see what these changes do for them.”
