F1 LIVE: Russell ‘advantage’ over Hamilton emerges as Verstappen makes Mercedes enquiry | F1 | Sport


Lando Norris plans to hold talks with McLaren following their pit strategy at the Japanese Grand Prix.

The British driver qualified third on the grid for Sunday’s race, but ended up fifth after being overtaken by Ferrari duo Carlos Sainz Jnr and Charles Leclerc.

“Charles did a good job to go that far on one set of tyres and then I’m surprised we boxed as early as we did, because that just put it in line with what Ferrari did, and we covered George [Russell] which I just didn’t think we maybe needed to do,” he said.

“This is something we’ll discuss during the briefing. Maybe a discussion of we could have done a better job for P4. It’s always difficult to make those decisions at the time, we didn’t even know that he was going to pit.”
