Lando Norris is preparing to race at the British Grand Prix, but the McLaren star was left with a painful memory from his 2022 experience at the iconic track.

And the Brit was fastest after today’s free practice sessions in front of his home fans at Silverstone, clocking a 1:25.816 in FP2 from the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc. Another home driver, Lewis Hamilton, had been quickest earlier in the day as he led FP1 for Ferrari with a 1:26.892.

McLaren’s Lando Norris says that if he could swap his 7 previous race wins to finish first at Silverstone, he would. World Sport’s Amanda Davies caught up with him earlier this week at the McLaren racing event in Trafalgar Square.

Expectations are high for Lando Norris to deliver a breakthrough victory at his home British Grand Prix. Nowhere more so than in the Landostand.
