McLaren boss Andrea Stella believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris has all the qualities needed to become F1 world champion, likening the Brit to other greats he’s workꦇed with🐠.

On Friday, McLaren announced Norris had signed a new multi-year deal with ✅the team.

It now means McLaren have Norris locked in alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri until the end of 2026.

While Norris has still been🐟 unable to win in F1, his reputation has only improved year-on-year.

He dominated 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo in their two years together as teammates, while Norris didn’t look 🌠out of place when McLaren finally gave him a car capable of consistently finishing on the podium in the middle of 2023.

Stella, who has worked alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso in the past, thinks Norris “de🉐finitely stands with them”.

"Lando definitely stands together with them," Stella said. "It is the saﷺme category, the same ไkind of world championship material, the underlying talent, the mindset, the work ethos. It's all ready to go.

"But at the same time, when you think about champions, there is a cꩲharacteristic of champion in that they only get better. Real champions, they seem to just improve year ♔by year.

"And I think that's the case because they use𓄧 the intelligence, the ethos, and they get the best people around them. They do whatever it takes to get better and better because the ꦿsport gets only more and more competitive."

Stella knew that𝔉 Norris had the♏ hallmarks of a champion when he first drove for the team back in 2018.

"Definitely we have all the raw material, which we saw already when Lando was doing the free practice one [sessions] wit𝔉h us," he said. "It was very evident in 2018.

"And then it kept𝐆 growing. It's there, we just need to keep growing year after year like every champion does. But we are extremely happy and committed to Lando, in this respect." ⛦;
