Lando Norris admitted on Wednesday in Las Vegas that he was demoralized after Verstappen’s success in the rain in Brazil, which virtually guaranteed Max the title…
Lando Norris: “Two things made Brazil difficult. First, it happened at the end of the season. If you suffer a defeat at the beginning of the championship, you simply continue and follow the development of the events. But this happened at a key moment, when there were almost no chances to win back.
The week after Brazil I was depressed because I realized the situation was almost completely out of my control. And coming to terms with this, accepting that everything collapsed overnight, was very difficult. I felt demoralized. Not the best feeling, but you have to be able to admit defeat. That’s life.
I’m not saying it’s over. I won’t say that as long as there are at least mathematical probabilities left. But right now they are very small. A good performance is not enough, we need a lot of luck. For example, I would win all the remaining races and Max would retire three times. Everyone understands that this is unlikely. Like in chess. The party is heading towards the finale. They put me under control. I was left alone and Max surrounded me with figures of his own color to attack.
