McLaren scored a memorable 1-2 finish in the ItalianGP last year, but Lando Norris is bracing himself for a 'difficult weekend' at Monza this time around. F1
However, when asked by Motorsport.com if there was any evidence that this year’s car could repeat that sort of form, Norris made it clear that he expects a very different scenario.
“But I think we are at a point now where we really understand the strengths and weaknesses of the car. I feel like we know now where we are going to be strong and weak. After the Belgian GP Norris said that the MCL36 had good straightline speed, but questioned the effectiveness of its DRS, suggesting that he didn’t gain as much as rivals when it was opened. He now has a better understanding of what was happening at the Belgian track.
“And when I would compare to Max, they had a much bigger rear wing on, so when they would open DRS, they gain a lot more speed than us. But even with the big rear wing, they're almost as quick as us with no rear wing.
