New Lando Norris F1 deal “the next priority” for McLaren - Zak Brown

Norris is one of F1’s hottest talents, with the British driver consistently linked with a switch to Red Bull alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.
However, McLaren’s mid-season resurgence in F1 2023 has made it more likely that he will want to stay with the team beyo🦄nd n😼ext year.
Speaking to Speedcafe, Brown conceded that Norris is understandably on the top of every F1 team’s lists given his performances in recent season🍎s.
“Yeah, I would say next priority,” he said.
“There are a lot of priorities, and certainly with Lando we've got some time, but♍ he is a driver that everybody up and down the pit lane wants.
“Ho𒁏w much longer is Lewis goin🉐g? What are Mercedes going to do? How much longer has Sergio [Perez] got?
“For sure, the three other big 🍨teams probably don't have visibility as to their driver line-up beyond '25.
“And I think with🧔 how Lando has performed, he would be top of everyone's list.”

With the new engine regulations coming into play in 2026, Brown believes McLaren is the 🥃best team for Norris to be at to capitalise on them.
“I think we're in a g🅘reat place with Lando,” he added.
“I think '26 is a great opportunity for everyone to reset, and there is nothing we don't have going into '26 that any of the othe♊r teams have.
“He's very comfortable in the environment, with his team-mate. I think as you go down and look at who can get it done in '26, there are four or five teams that you can say can get it done, and ♍we will be one of those.”
