Lando Norris wins Qatar Grand Prix after Lewis Hamilton's pre-race jibe
Lando Norris won the Qatar Grand Prix after leading the race and handing victory to his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri. This performance came after Lewis Hamilton had mocked Norris's race starts, questioning his ability to maintain a lead. Hamilton's comments were made before the race, suggesting Norris would struggle. However, Norris successfully held his position at the start and finished strong, while Hamilton ended the race in sixth place. Norris has faced criticism for his race starts this season, but he believes the concerns are exaggerated. He has qualified fastest seven times but converted only two into wins.
