168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris feels he now has the “confidence” to win the F1 driv𓄧ers’ championship t🍰his year after struggling with self-belief in the past.

Norris was Max Verstappen’s closest rival in 2024 but could not take ♊the title down to the wire in Abu Dhabi.

Despite McLar𒅌en overtaking Red Bull in the pecking ordeꩲr, Norris failed to capitalise on having superior machinery.

Speaking on a , Norris was open about how he struggled with confidence in the past - something he's overcome 🍸recently.

“Confidence is something I’ve struggled🅠 with in the past,” he said.

“And probably I’ve only built enough up throughout this season to go ‘I’m confident that I’m a good enough drౠiver to win a championship next year’ and I can bring a fight to whoever wants to fight me for it.”

Norris has learned from his mistakes

Norris꧃’ failed title bid wasn’t entirely his fault, though♊.

Poor strategy decisions from McLaren in Canada a⛎nd Britain co🔯st him likely victories.

In Canada, McLaren d🐷idn't pre-empt the ཧSafety Car when he was leading the race.

At Silverstone, McLaren followed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton and put him on the softs🌊, when the more durable rubber was the way to go.

However, his race craft against Verstappen in Austria, then poor starts in Hungary and Italy, meant he couldn’t further reduce the Dutchman♔’s lead.

Reflecting on l🅺osing any hope of the title last year, Norris said: “When that realisation kind of sets in of ‘it’s gone’, it’s a tough one. This is what I’ve done sinc🦹e I was a kid, this is all I want to do. So, as soon as that kind of candle is gone and it’s over, it hurts.”

“However, Norris remains proud of how he performed during the 2024 season and is looking forward to taking the lessons learned into 2025. It’s been a year where, actually, I🐈’ve been pretty proud of my performance. Proud of performing under the pressure that we’ve been under, deliver𒉰ing when I have.

“I’ve madeꦉ my mistakes and, at the same time, I’ve learned a lot from those mistakes. So for us to go into next year, going ‘we have what it takes, we have a car’... I believe I’m a good enough driver and I’ve got everything it takes.

“I’m excited to go into 2025 🍌knowing I’ve learned a lot, I’ve improved a lot and I’m ready to bring the fight to everyone.”
