21-year-old Lando Norris is arguably one of the best drivers on the grid this season. The young Brit is the only driver to score in each race weekend so far this season. In addition, Norris has already surpassed his point total from the previous year after the Austrian GP and is aiming McLaren to finish ahead of Ferrari in the constructor’s championship.

Throughout this season, Lando Norris has received praise from almost the entire F1 fraternity, including fellow compatriot Lewis Hamilton. And once again the seven-time world champion was impressed by the young McLaren driver who finished P4 at Silverstone.

In a video posted by the official Twitter account of McLaren, Lewis Hamilton was seen recording Lando Norris’s interview after the British GP. The tweet reads: No.1 fan (with a winking emoji).
