Lando Norris claimed his fourth second-place finish of the season in the Japanese Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri joining him on the podium. Speaking with Damon Hill after the race, the Brit shared his happiness for the strong team result achieved by McLaren.

"Another amazing day for us, couldn't have asked for more," the Brit explained with a smile, before adding: "My start was very good, I almost had Max. I tried but the pace was extremely strong today. We're not close to Max, but we're not miles away either!"
