Can Norris deliver another strong weekend in Austin?
Although the Briton qualified P8 for tomorrow’s race, he may feel slightly disappointed. Not only did he qualify behind Ricciardo in P7, but both Ferrari cars as well.
Although Ferrari looked slightly better on Saturday, Norris’ performances this season would have him high on confidence. Expect the Briton to make moves up the grid in tomorrow’s race, as McLaren‘s battle with Ferrari continues to intensify.
