The McLaren duo starred in qualifying as Piastri claimed second place behind Verstappen’s dominant Red Bull, w🦹hile Norris was just 0.035s behind his teammate in third. 

When asked if they can do anything to prevent Verstappen from claiming his 13th win of the season on Sunday, Norris jokingly suggested that Piastri co💛uld replicate Ayrton Senna’s actions at the start of the 19🎀90 Japanese Grand Prix. 

The legendary Brazilian rammed into rival Alain Prost at Turn 1 to take them both out of the race and controversially clinch that year’s world title in the proꦇcess.&nbܫsp;

“We’re goin🔯g to try. If he’s leading by Turn 2, th💙ere’s not a lot you can really do,” Norris said. 

“I don’t know. If you🎐 want to emulate Senna, Oscar, into Turn 1, you can do that hopefully. It would be lovely for me!&🐻nbsp;

“We’ll try. I think oꦯur pace is decent. It’s definitely not going to be as good as the Red Bull, but we’ll do our best.”

Asked the same question moments before Norris, Piastri, who impressed on his first visit to Suzuka, responded: “We tried our best at Silverstone so we’ll try and do the same thing🌳, but obviously it’s going to be difficult. 

“I think it’s going to b𝓡e a difficult race tomorrow. Ver🔜y different to Silverstone in that regard. It could be a lot more open, I think.”
