Red Bull’s triple world champion finished 22.896 seconds behind, after seizing the lead at the start but being passed on the 18th of 72 laps, with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc taking the checkered flag in third place after starting sixth. “It feels amazing. I wouldn’t say a perfect race, because of lap one again, but afterwards it was beautiful. The pace was very strong, the car was unbelievable,” said Norris, who took his first win in Miami in May.
The upgraded McLaren clearly had the pace as well as the drag reduction advantage, however, and after one probing attempt on lap 17, Norris went past down the inside at the Tarzan turn one and pulled steadily away. Norris also took a bonus point for fastest lap with a final flourish and was voted Driver of the Day by fans.“You always hope to do better. We had a good start and tried everything we could but it was clear we were not quick enough,” said Verstappen.
