Pri McLarn they have repeatedly stressed this weekend that they have no material to beat Ferrari, Racing Point and others, but in the end it turned out that v Spielberg (for now) third power. "We really didn't expect that," Norris explains: "It simply came to our notice then. We certainly did not expect to be in the top six. "
“We thought they would be far ahead of us at Racing Point because they really showed fast performances in all the training sessions, so I’m pretty shocked that we managed something like that. I am happy, also because as a team we have proved once again that we are the strongest when it is most needed, " he added Norris.
Norris ’best qualifiers so far have been fifth place in France in Austria last season. Fourth place is also McLarn’s best ranking since Button's third place four years ago. Norris despite some problems in Q3 (he had to interrupt his first attempt) he had a great time and after the qualifiers he said: “I made a mistake on the first try and I had to break up, so I bet everything on the second. The car is really good, I was able to squeeze it to the end and also gain confidence. "
