Norris was unhappy with Netflix’s portrayal of the two’s dynamic as teammates. He also claims certain clips from the Bahrain GP do not tell the full story. He said, “There’s a bit of me and Daniel going side by side….and I claim he pushes me off, which is from a completely different race,”

The 2 enter their second season as teammates, and this season brings a whole new era of F1. Riccardo, who did not live up to his hype in parts of 2021, will look for every opportunity to bounce back. He will hope that his experience will help him adjust to the car quickly.

Unfortunately, the Australian has recently tested positive for COVID-19 and had to miss the Bahrain Testing. This means his 2022 start has not exactly gone to plan.

On the other hand, Norris himself would want to continue his stellar 2021 form into the new era. If McLaren has managed to build a car good enough to fight for wins, then Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo are 2 of the best drivers to bring the Legendary team back to its glory days.
