"The slightly lower downforce that we have potentially has hurt us a little bit today and hopefully will pay us back tomorrow."
After showing impressive pace in dry conditions on Friday, Norris could only secure fourth on the grid for tomorrow’s race.
“What we did yesterday was pretty much all we got. I think going into today we were optimistic still. I was just struggling a bit myself. Oscar was almost quickest in the first two sessions. Q3, I think both just struggled a little bit more. “It’s not the result I wanted honestly. Still got to overtake some quick cars like the Red Bull of Perez.”Norris confirmed that McLaren have opted to run with “slightly lower downforce” in preparation for a dry race.“The slightly lower downforce that we have potentially has hurt us a little bit today and hopefully will pay us back tomorrow,” he explained.
