McLaren proudly sang, “Lando, you’re the one. You still turn me on. You just got a podium!” after Lando Norris finished P3 at the Imola GP. He kept his nose out of any crashes, had a rather lonely race, but ticked off this podium.

After a sensational Imola podium last year, Lando would’ve not expected this to happen again. Throughout the weekend, the Britisher was quick on his reflexes, reeled in to grasp any opportunities, and finished ahead of his teammate.

The hurdles didn’t bother him much as he safely landed himself on the podium. This win even urged the McLaren camp to award Lando with his own rendition of Whole Again.
