The Britton decided to go with only the current drivers on the grid. He went on to name the drivers of his choice, “You’d have Lewis in there, you’d have Max, I love Fernando, a bit of Carlos, and a bit of Yuki.”
He further commented on the prospect of having Yuki, “you know Yuki loves a little radio scream. So just for pure entertainment, I put Yuki in there.”

Lando’s shaky but fairly decent start to 2022
Norris has not had an ideal start to the season. The season opener in Bahrain saw him and McLaren struggle. He finished in P15. The second race in Jeddah saw him fare a lot better with a solid P7 finish with a little fortune on his side.
