Norris finally won one!
Great pace in the McLaren and obviously a bit of luck with the safety car. But even if the SC wouldn't have wrongfully picked up Verstappen, the SC would've needed to wait another lap. Norris was around 10-11 seconds ahead of Verstappen when the Safety Car was called, and a pit stop under SC loses you around 9 seconds according to the strategy article on formula1.com - so he would've probably been ahead anyway. But even if he would've been P2, the pace advantage would've probably been enough to actually overtake Verstappen. I think it would've even been a close race if there was no Safety Car at all.
Funny how Ferrari, Red Bull, Mercedes and Aston Martin go for the big names (Hamilton to Ferrari, Newey in talks with Ferrari and maybe Mercedes, Mercedes wanting Verstappen badly, Aston signing Alonso and having an engine deal with Honda from 2026 etc.), meanwhile McLaren is comparatively silently developing their car and they already have a mega driver lineup.
