Formula 1 Rumor: Lando Norris Could Force Move to Ferrari and Surprise Team

Lewis Hamilton isn't the only one who might look for a change. Lando Norris could be looking to jump start his career soon as well.

It's no secret that McLaren didn't come out firing on all cylinders this past weekend in the 2023 Bahrain GP. First, they had their hyped up rookie driver, Oscar Piastri, bow out early due to electrical issues. Then the fact that their lead driver, Lando Norris, had to pit 6 times for a pressure leak can tell you all you need to know about the frustrations that could be building up for the young British driver. 

According to Karun Chandhok, a race car driver and F1 Pundit, Lando is probably approaching a mindset where he has to be thinking about a move to Ferrari or maybe even Red Bull. 

"I tell you who will be thinking about a move to Ferrari or Red Bull though, is young Lando Norris," Chandhok said on the



Sky Sports F1 Podcast

"Looking at where they're [McLaren] at, and we were talking before the season of McLaren locking him in and Zak [Brown] doing an amazing job of contracting him [Norris] in for that four-year period.

"I do wonder, and if they're smart they would have created some sort of exit clauses.

Landon is earning $20M per season right now and is contractually locked up with Mclaren until the end of the 2025 season, but we've seen this with Senna and Lotus and recently with Fernando Alonso and Ferrari. 

Would this be the career move Lando needs to make to be included in the conversations of Top Drivers in this generation?
