Lando Norris, a British driver from McLaren, acknowledged that his team was facing a tough challenge against Ferrari at the Japanese Grand Prix in Suzuka. Norris admitted that he pushed his tires too hard in the first part of the race, which ended up putting him at a disadvantage. Despite McLaren’s optimism before the weekend, as they had achieved a double podium in Suzuka in the past and their car had similar strengths to its predecessor, Norris couldn’t keep up with the Ferrari drivers and finished in fifth place. Ferrari’s race strategy, including executing a single pit stop with Charles Leclerc and an overtaking strategy with Carlos Sainz, played a significant role in their success. However, Norris believed that Ferrari’s race pace was not as exceptional as expected. He acknowledged that trying to keep up with a faster car or stay ahead of the Ferrari cars put additional pressure on his tires, making it difficult to maintain a competitive position. Despite this, Norris expressed satisfaction with McLaren’s performance, as they finished where they expected – behind Ferrari. He acknowledged that their strong qualifying performance may have given the impression that they were better than they actually were, but the race brought them back to reality. Norris also questioned McLaren’s strategy, suggesting that they may have been too cautious compared to Ferrari. He reflected on the timing of their second pit stop and wondered if they could have made a different decision to improve their chances. Norris believed that they may have unnecessarily covered George Russell’s pit stop, which led to him pitting at the same time as Charles Leclerc. In hindsight, Norris believed that they could have extended their stint for a few more laps and then make a recovery, similar to what Carlos Sainz did. Overall, Norris expressed that this was just his opinion and that the team would discuss and review their strategy for the future.
