After the Brazilian Grand Prix, Lando Norris said that Max Verstappen had been lucky to come from P17 to P1. The Briton later backtracked, congratulating the Dutchman on an impressive victory. In a video on Formula 1's YouTube channel, he goes a step further.

In the video, the drivers are asked who is in their top three drivers of all time. Many different names are mentioned, such as Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton.

Who does Norris think is the greatest F1 driver?

However, only one person mentions Max Verstappen in the top three. That person is Lando Norris, the Dutchman's title rival. The Brit said, "I don't know about the old guys. I didn't witness any of them. I have to go with the ones I know. That's Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen."

With three races and one sprint race left, the championship difference is 62 points. Mathematically, Norris can still win the title, but the Dutchman can secure it in Las Vegas.
