While speaking after the Russian GP, Lando Norris said that he is ‘devastated’ not to win his maiden F1 Grand Prix. “Obviously unhappy… devastated in a way. I guess we made a call to stay out and we stand by that call. Of course, the wrong one at the end.” 

With several fans pointing out fingers at McLaren F1 for costing Norris, the 21-year old cleared the air as he stated that it was his choice as much as the team. “I made the decision as much as the team. They thought I should box and I decided to stay out. My decision. I thought it was the way to go.”

Speaking of his performance before the heartbreak, Norris said, “I felt like I did everything I could even when it got tricky. I made a couple of mistakes and still kept Lewis behind. The laps I was out before Lewis boxed, it was perfectly fine for the tyres I was on.” 

He finished the post-race interview by stating that he did not expect the track to get as wet as it did, which in turn led him to make a mistake.
