Recently McLaren’s Lando Norris has been reviewing an F1 Grand Prix and giving his own analysis. The 21- year-old called out Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc for being a dangerous driver as the two were battling it out in the closing laps of the race in Baku.
However, it was the Monégasque who finished ahead of Norris in fourth place, while Lando had to settle for P5. The young Brit would look to beat his “friend” in the next race in France and try to avoid his doggy style of driving as well.

Norris was doing a review of the Azerbaijan GP and said, “This was a little bit dodgy from Charles here. Charles has seen that I have gone right and then he has reacted to me. Not really allowed to do that.”
Then Norris sarcastically mentions that he doesn’t know anything about rules, a reference to his controversial penalty given by the FIA for not following red flags.
