The emotion matched the intensity of the end of the season. Third in the last GP of the season, in Abu Dhabi, Lando Norris won his first F1 world champion title. And when crossing the finish line, the McLaren driver couldn’t hold back his emotion.
He first wanted to salute his team: “Thank you guys, you made this dream come true. I love you, thank you for everything. You deserve it. » The Briton then wiped away his tears as he took the time to thank his parents.
“Mom, I love you. Dad I love you. Thank you for everything,” said the new world champion. And as if not to betray his emotion, Norris wanted to justify himself: “I’m not crying…” Once out of his car, Norris went to throw himself into the arms of his parents and his partner.
At the microphone of Canal +, Cisca Wauman, the mother of the McLaren driver, returned to her son’s coronation: “I have no words. I am emotionally exhausted. I miss Lando. I’m so happy.”
It was then Adam Norris, his father, who spoke about this title: “I’m very proud, it took a long time to come. I stayed quiet in my room watching TV. I only came out for the last lap. And there I felt the emotion, when it was obvious that he was going to win. Now we’re going to celebrate, it’s going to be a big party. »
Norris also appeared very happy when he went to kiss his fiancée Magui for a long time.
