Lando Norris: Wins Australian Grand Prix
Norris converted pole position into a hard-fought win during the 2025 season-opening Australian Grand Prix, which featured mixed weather conditions, multiple crashes, Safety Cars and a late-race downpour that caused huge drama, Formula1.com reports.
Analysis:
The McLaren star controlled the early laps of the grand prix as the track transitioned from wet to dry. However, some heavy late-race rain would send both Norris and his teammate, Oscar Piastri, spinning into the grass on slick tyres. Norris would come to pit area and bolt on rain tyres and make a huge recovery to retake the lead from Max Verstappen. He would control the pace from there to capture the win in the season-opener in Melbourne.
