Lando Norris will be hoping to pile pressure on his main rival, Max Verstappen by winning the
Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
Most recent race
The British star claimed a podium spot at the Italian Grand Prix on 1 September, the most recent race in the 2024 Formula One World Championship season.
Norris started on the first grid, but he slipped up which saw him finish third - accumulating 16 points from the event held at the Monza Circuit.
Formula One title ambitions
The 2014 Karting World Championship direct-drive winner remains second on the World Drivers' Championship standings having collected 241 points.
Norris is now 62 points behind leader Verstappen of Red Bull Racing as the two drivers go head-to-head for this season's Formula One world championship.
Why Norris could win the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix
The Bristol-born sportsman has secured back-to-back podium spots in the last two races this season including a win at the Dutch Grand Prix.
Having also won this season's Miami Grand Prix, Norris has what it takes to win this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
What did he say?
“A frustrating day on track," Norris said after finishing third at the 2024 Italian Grand Prix.
"Ferrari drove a better race today, so hats-off to them, they had a better car. Well done to Oscar, he did a good job getting past me, and deserved to finish ahead.
"We considered the one-stop race, but it wasn’t possible with the amount of graining I had. We knew it would be tight, and we’re disappointed with the end result, but we’ll go again in Baku.”
