Another lead for Norris lost in lap 1 :(
Verstappen already up to 10th and out for blood.
To be fair to Norris he knows he just needs to not crash and stay ahead of Max. Russell knew that and just needed to start well enough to make him nervous.
He's not really lost time to Russell and seems to be catching up now (lap 13). I suppose he'll try to pass if Max gets to p5 or p4.
With Norris in 2nd and Verstappen currently in 6th with fastest lap there's a 9 point difference.
To close the 44 point gap Norris needs to outscore him by more than 11 points each race (not including the Qatar sprint).
