Lando Norris was only a tenth down on Red Bull's Max Verstappen come the end of FP2 in Mexico.
Lando Norris joked that he perhaps came out of the blocks too hot in Mexico, as he places Red Bull likely out of reach.
The Brit would end that session only a tenth down on Verstappen, sparking hope that after Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes’ challenge last weekend in Austin, McLaren could this time bring the fight to Red Bull.But, with drivers traditionally building up their pace through the practice sessions, Norris joked that he perhaps showed his hand too soon.“A good start to the weekend anyway, it’s close, things that can swing very quickly either way.
Team principal Andrea Stella was thankful for a smooth two hours of practice on Friday, but while the pace looks encouraging, he too is not getting carried away yet, believing that McLaren were not alone in threatening a strong weekend. “It’s been a productive first day in Mexico City,” he said. “We had no issues across either session, which meant we could work on set-up, tyres and cooling.
