Helmut Marko talked about the signing of Lando Norris and an “annoying question”.

The possibility of Lando Norris moving to Red Bull has been rumored for a long time, but the young Briton signed a long-term deal with McLaren at the beginning of the year, so he will certainly stay with the Woking team for the coming seasons.

However, Red Bull motorsport consultant Helmut Marko has made no secret of his high regard for Norris and joked with his father, Adam Norris, regarding his signing:

“Lando Norris is a young driver and we are clearly focused on him. He hasn’t won a race yet, and his father joked that maybe he will when Max retires. I said that you have to confirm with us, and then things will go faster,” Marko told ServusTV.

When asked regarding the outlook for the rest of the 2024 season, the adviser spoke regarding how he finds one question unnerving:

“First of all, the nagging question of whether we’re going to win every race this year is out of the question. Our goal is to win the World Cup. Our rivals got closer to us this year, especially Ferrari.”

“That’s why it was important to gain a bigger advantage in both the individual and constructor championships. I think we will have a more difficult task, and the goal is the world championship title. And we are on the right track,” said the Austrian.
