Lando Norris: 'I’m the Favourite for 2025!'

McLaren’s Best Chance at the Title in Decades!

McLaren enters the 2025 F1 season as the team to beat, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri leading the charge. Their dominance in the second half of 2024 saw them overtake Red Bull as the grid’s top team.

Norris believes McLaren has a strong chance of maintaining its edge, especially after an impressive pre-season in Bahrain—a track that historically troubled the team. He expects the MCL39 to excel at Albert Park, where McLaren was already competitive last year.

Confident in his car’s all-around strength, Norris sees it as one of the most complete machines on the grid. He is certain that continued development throughout the year will keep McLaren ahead—just as they proved in 2024.

The MCL38’s updates consistently unlocked more performance, helping McLaren clinch their first Constructors’ title in over 25 years. If the MCL39 delivers as expected from Melbourne onwards, the only goal will be to secure both world titles.

While Ferrari, Red Bull, and Mercedes remain threats, Norris’s biggest rival may be Piastri. The Aussie has shown he can win races and fight wheel-to-wheel, even if Norris generally had the edge over one lap.

Last season, team orders late in the year seemed to dampen Piastri’s motivation. However, with a fresh title battle, managing the internal rivalry at McLaren will be crucial. The early rounds may decide who emerges as the team’s true leader.
