[engine roars]

[exciting music plays]

[music halts dramatically]

Hi, I'm Lando Norris.

Come with me,
and I'll show you my hot lap.

[engine revs]

[exciting music resumes]

[Norris] To be European champion,

I need to be stronger.

[commentator 1] Max Verstappen
takes the win.

It's a great feeling
and, uh, we worked really hard for that.

I can't be happier right now.

[Norris] Me and Max, we've grown up
in similar generations, similar times.

We're very good friends.

[reporter] Do you think at any point
that you could beat Max?

Um... [chuckles]

I have no idea what it's like
to win a Formula 1 race...

[commentator 2] Max Verstappen,
on the inside, takes the lead.

...um, 'cause I've never done it.

[commentator 1] It's all slipping away
for the British driver.

[Norris] I just fuck it up too much.
I'm sorry.

I got a good amount of podiums, but I
think every single second place I've had,

they've been to Max.

[Buxton] Critical difference
between Max and Lando,

Max has a complete fuck-you mentality.

[dramatic music plays]

[Verstappen] Don't give me
that bullshit now.

You guys give me
the fucking strategy, okay?

And that's not Lando.

This season, if he wants
to take on Max Verstappen,

he has to be ruthless...

[commentator 1] Two friends turned rivals.

...to the cost of everything,

even his best friend.

[Verstappen] Nice. Oh my God.

[machinery whirring]

[engine revs]

[music fades]

[birds chirp]

[water splashes]

[cell phone buzzes]

[Brown] Steve.

Yeah. Hey.

Just chilling out.

[funky music plays]

Okay.

- [producer] Here we go.
- You ready?

2024.

Yeah, I don't think
anyone wants another year of

Red Bull winning every race.

Yeah, I think, um,

car is gonna be pretty mega.

This has been a strong offseason.

The team's done an unbelievable job
developing the car.

We're definitely thinking
we have everything in our toolbox

to fight at the... the... the very top.

And we got the best driver lineup.

I think we have a chance to win races
this year and take it to Red Bull.

We know we've given Lando a car,
this year,

capable of winning races.

So we've got big expectations.

Yeah.

Everyone's beatable.

I think Lando's gonna push 'em real hard,

and we'll see if we can get 'em to crack.

[music fades]

[man] Zak told me that you have
the best driver lineup.

- Is he right?
- No.

- [man laughs]
- Don't know what he's smoking.

[man] When you were
in the junior categories, F2, F3,

all the way down to karting,
you were winning every month.

[Norris] I think, when you get to F1,
you have to get used to

not having even a chance of winning.

I might not even win for... ever. [chuckles]

- [Fewtrell] "I might never win again."
- I might never win again.

[tense music plays]

Something that people don't realize
is how brutal Formula 1 is.

There's 20 seats in the world.

And it's kind of
you against everyone else.

If you lose your seat,

it could be that your career's over
all of a sudden within Formula 1.

[Fewtrell] You are up against
quite a big challenge, to be fair.

Max, Red Bull.

Yeah, Max and Red Bull... [scoffs]

[both chuckle]

[Norris sighs]

[Norris] If I don't do this,
there's nothing to fall back on.

I'm starting what I'm hoping will be
my best season ever in Formula 1.

[commentator 2] Final lap here in Bahrain.

Norris across the line.

[Joseph] It's P6.

[Norris] Bit tricky today.

[tense music plays]

[commentator 3] Welcome along
to the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

[commentator 1] Max Verstappen
down the main straight.

Verstappen takes the lead.

[Norris groans]

[commentator 2] Lando Norris
in eighth place.

[Norris] I'm sorry.

[tense music plays]

[commentator 1] Norris in third.

There's Pérez making
the move to the inside and taking P3.

[Norris] My bad, my bad.

[Buxton] I think everyone expected Lando
to turn up in 2024

and be competing with Red Bull
at the top of the field,

and he just hasn't done that.

[Horner] Pole position, race win,
fastest lap, fastest pit stop.

[Verstappen] Sounds simply lovely to me.

[commentator 2] Lando Norris
crosses the line fifth.

[Norris] I fucked up.

Max again, bastard.

It's always fucking Max.

The start of this season
has been disappointing for Lando.

It's been disappointing for McLaren.

Now there are a lot of people questioning

whether Lando is quite as good as he
was made out to be when he was younger.

[tense music continues]

[producer] Where did the Lando "No Wins"
thing come from?

Um...

Lando "No Wins"?
I didn't even know this was a nickname.

It's the worst nickname ever.

[tense music continues]

The Lando "No Wins" probably came from...

I don't know.

Just, uh, people
in love with their keyboard, I think.

[Button] It's tough.
It'll definitely be playing on his mind

because other drivers
will... will use it against him.

Lando "No Wins,"
I think that's a little bit harsh.

[chuckles] Yeah.

[tense music continues]

[Norris] My weakness is

caring too much
about what people say or think or feel.

And then I kind of get into this spiral,

which has been my problem
with making progress in my career.

I just gotta focus on my own driving,
and that's all I can control.

[upbeat music plays]

[music stops]

[upbeat music resumes]

[commentator 3] Welcome, everybody,
to the Miami International Autodrome.

Max Verstappen
absolutely loves this place.

He's never been beaten
around the 19 turns.

[reporter] Lando, first up,
we have to talk about your nose.

Uh, how are you doing with that?

Uh, I'm fine. I had a good weekend.
Uh, spent it with some friends.

It's just a little cut
from a bit of glass. That's it.

Do you know, as a team principal,
seeing your driver partying

before race weekends, it's not ideal.

Oh, fuck, it's warm in there.

[laughter]

[music stops]

[cheering]

What's going on over there?

- It's Trump.
- Trump.

Oh my God, I really wanna see him.

[upbeat music plays]

Checo!

This year,
McLaren have got a really great car,

and there are no excuses for Lando.

Lando needs to be on top of it

if he is going to beat Max.

A win is long overdue.

[music stops]

All good?

How was your night in Amsterdam?

- [Norris] Fucking mega.
- It was big?

It was.

Someone sent me a photo of you with
all that toilet paper around your face.

I was like, "What is going on?"

- No, it was a proper bandage.
- Oh, really?

- [Norris] Yeah.
- Sun... Sunrise picture.

[producer] You've got
a party-boy reputation.

Is that fair?

- Um...
- [dance music plays]

[music stops]

Uh...

[dance music resumes]

[music stops]

Uh, no.

[Verstappen] How's your nose?

[Verstappen laughs]

[Norris] It's all right.
I'm, like, a bit drunk.

So I'm trying to drink,
and he's like, "No!"

- Oh, and then you, like, bang.
- And then he lets go.

And it's completely cut.

Boom, so then it goes like this.

Ah, must've hurt a bit, no?

I did not notice.

It's a little flesh...

[Norris] A little DRS flap.

[Verstappen chuckles]

[Norris] Little rear wing.

It's okay.

I rate Lando very high,
and he's a nice guy. He's very relaxed.

Of course, he hasn't won a race yet.

But most of the time,
the people who make it to Formula 1

are actually not
the most talented people out there

but are the ones
who combine talent with... with hard work.

[tense music plays]

[Norris] Yes, Max! Show the aggression.

[groaning]

[Russell] You can't deal with that.

From when I was a little kid, I wanted to
be a Formula 1 driver and I wanted to win.

- [Norris shrieks] Alex!
- [Russell] Forty, zero.

I think I'm very talented, but at the end
of the day, you know, it's not a given.

For me, it's what you do
off the track as well.

You have to try and work harder
than the people around you.

[tense music continues]

[chuckles] There are a lot of differences
between me and Max.

Like a lot.

He's 100% more aggressive.

[Albon chuckles]

Mate, my heart stopped.

Probably naturally,

um, a

more born racer than what I am.

You should see the car I'm in.
I'm in the little green one.

[music fades]

[laughter]

I had no knowledge growing up
of what I needed to do

and what I needed to be like
and that kind of stuff. And he did.

And the door's broken,
so if I go around the corner--

- No, it go... It opens up?
- The whole thing...

[both laugh]

His dad was in it.

And for sure that's helped him
when he got to F1.

Drive safe.

- [engine revs]
- Always. You know me.

[horn honks]

[horn honks]

I was, you know, small,
and people could take advantage of that

and those kind of things.

And he probably grew up
on, like, the aggressive side of racing,

and I was always probably
the kind of car that got bullied.

No!

[Russell laughs]

He asked, mate.

It's my only hat.

Is it your only one? Oh shit.

At least your hair looks good, mate.

[crowd cheering]

[helicopter blades whir]

[man on radio] You know, Max Verstappen,
53 wins in the last 106 races.

It's all going simply lovely
for him on the track.

The fans have always
been great here, though.

They've always been,

um,

really enthusiastic.

We've won it twice.

- [producer] Gonna get another, then?
- I'd love to.

[producer] So McLaren's got a decent car
this year. How do you think Zak's feeling?

I have no idea how Zak is feeling.

I think when you're winning,
it just annoys people

because there can only be one winner
at the end of the day.

[crowd clamoring]

[Horner] And in Formula 1,

there's winners and wankers,

and you don't wanna be
in the wanker category.

[man 1] Be nice to see you win.

[Brown] We may need Max to slip
on a banana peel for that to happen.

[man 2] Ooh!

- [man 3] Get that on camera.
- Almost biffed it.

- [man 3] It's on Netflix, don't worry.
- That would've been bad.

Their best chance of challenging Max
is with Lando.

But does Lando have the mental strength
to go up against Max?

Only time will tell.

So what he's doing now is visualization.

- [Norris] I'm visualizing my lap now.
- This is what we're doing.

[man] People think he's just
kicking back and relaxing,

but this is pure visualization.

- Are you in reverse now?
- An engine failure.

That's the spot.

There isn't a right way
or a wrong way to win a race.

You can win it smiling, or you can win it
being unhappy. You can win it...

Doesn't matter what mentality you have.
You just gotta win.

Stop the car? Okay.

[man laughs]
This is not what we practiced.

I have to walk back to the pit lane.
Just one sec.

I don't care what, uh, people
say I need to have or what I must have.

Um, it's all opinions.

And in my opinion,
um, I can win it the way I am.

[man chuckles]

[crowd cheering]

If Lando wants to beat Max Verstappen,

does he have what it takes
to be that killer?

[tense music plays]

[engine revs]

[Buxton] There are a lot of doubters.

The questions will continue to come

until he starts to perform

at the top of the field.

[tense music continues]

[commentator 3] Max Verstappen
starts on pole.

Yep, radio check.

[commentator 3] Will he go on and win it?

Lando Norris, fifth.

[Norris] Radio check.

[Joseph] Yep, loud and clear.

Okay, Lando, ready?

[commentator 2] Verstappen leads
into turn one.

Pérez locks up.
Almost takes out Verstappen.

[Pérez] Fuck.

Fucking hell.

[exhales]

What the fuck was that?

[tense music plays]

[commentator 1] Sergio Pérez's heart
will be pounding.

He's lost a place.
So has Sainz. So has Norris.

[man] That's fucking shit.

[commentator 1] Max Verstappen has
the chance to stretch his legs out front.

- [Lambiase] Are you happy for the moment?
- Yeah.

[Lambiase] Gap, 1.3.

[tense music continues]

[Joseph] Pérez ahead,
possibly genuinely struggling.

[Norris] I'll go get him.

[Joseph] This is really strong pace.

[tense music continues]

[Bird] Box, Checo. Box.

[Pérez] Yep.

[commentator 1] And Norris improves to P5.

[Joseph] Sainz is the car ahead.

Pace is good, so let's keep this up then.

- [Joseph] Lando, you're the fastest car.
- [Norris] Yeah, all good.

[commentator 2] Carlos Sainz pits.
And Piastri pits too.

[Joseph] Okay, Lando.
Cars have started to pit.

Would you prefer to stay out?

- [Norris] I think stay out.
- [Joseph] Gap to Verstappen, nine.

[Lambiase] Okay, just watch
your brake application, Max.

[Verstappen] Yeah.

- I hit that cone.
- [Lambiase] Understood.

Box and pit. Confirm, Max.

[Joseph] Verstappen has pitted.

[Norris] Yeah, confirm.

[commentator 1] Lando Norris
takes over the lead of the race.

Kevin Magnussen and Logan Sargeant
really aggressively racing.

[tense music continues]

[tires screech]

[Jego] Are you okay?

I'm okay, I'm okay.

[tense music continues]

- [Lambiase] Safety car deployed, Max.
- Did Lando pit?

[Lambiase] No.

[Verstappen] Fuck.

[Joseph] Lando, opportunity. Box this lap.

[Norris] Yeah, confirm.

[commentator 1] This is
a big moment for Lando.

The rest of the field
is behind the safety car.

He can pit
and still emerge as the race leader.

[Joseph] Lando, you're gonna come out
ahead of Verstappen.

[Norris chuckles]

[Horner] Lucky bastards.

They got very lucky with the safety car.

- [Sainz] Fuck, this is so unlucky.
- [Adami] Yeah.

[Sainz] Lando's gonna lead the race, no?

- [Lambiase] Lando on a fresh hard tire.
- [Verstappen] What the fuck?

[commentator 1] Lando Norris has never won
a Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Is this the day to change all of that?

[Norris] I come out of the box,
come out of the pits,

I'm gonna be leading the race.

I got lucky.

So trying to tell myself
it's just another race.

But seeing Max in my mirrors,
in my head, I think, "Don't fuck it up."

[tense music plays]

[Joseph] Let's go.

[tense music gains pace]

[commentator 1] Norris and Verstappen
fighting immediately on the restart.

[Joseph] Be careful. Verstappen, 0.5.

[commentator 1] Can Lando Norris
keep Max Verstappen behind?

- [Lambiase] More, please, Max.
- [Verstappen] Yeah.

[Joseph] Eight laps to go.

[Norris] Okay.

[Norris] When you're leading
and you're in that position,

then your mind starts to play games.

[Russell] Lando "No Wins."

No wins.

[groaning]

[music becomes suspenseful]

[Lambiase] Five laps remaining.

- [Norris] Gap?
- [Joseph] 0.9.

[commentator 1] It's Lando versus Max.

[Lambiase] Three more laps.

[commentator 1] Let's just see
how this unfolds.

[commentator 1] Max is all out attack.

- [man] Go on, Max.
- Come on. Go on.

[Joseph] Lando, last lap.

- Come on, boy!
- [man] Come on!

[music builds]

[music fades]

[Joseph] You've done it, mate.
You've done it.

[commentator 2] Norris trumps Verstappen

and wins for the first time in his career.

[Norris] Woo!

[Norris] Ah, about fucking time.

Yeah! [laughs]

[Norris sighs happily]

Lando "No Wins," huh?

[Norris chuckles]

[triumphant music plays]

[man] Woo-hoo!

[Leclerc] Congrats to Lando
for his first win.

[Piastri] Well done to Lando. First win.

Very, very well done.

[music stops]

[Verstappen] You can't, uh...
You can't win them all.

[Horner] Just unlucky with the safety car.

Yeah!

Yeah!

[crowd cheering]

Oh yeah!

Um...

Fortuitous, shall we say?

Not a bad day at the office, my friend.

But I think McLaren have got to reappraise
the position they're in.

[Brown] That was good.

That was... We needed that. That was good.

Oh man.

[Buxton] That's a seriously
competitive car

and a driver in Lando Norris
who is now a Grand Prix winner.

[triumphant music plays]

[crowd cheering]

Dude, broken rib time!

Woo! [laughs]

[man] You've done it, mate.

- Uh, which way have we gotta go?
- This is parc fermé.

We have to go around the other way
and walk around the stadium.

[Brown] Woo-hoo!

- Dude!
- Congratulations.

[Horner] Okay,
and it's quite a schlap, is it? Or...

Yeah, but they've opened it
into two lanes.

There's a guest lane
and a team personnel lane.

Right, okay.

[crowd cheering]

Well, we should go around.

- [Geri] Do you want me to come with you?
- [Horner] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

[Horner] It's a good reminder
that it hurts to lose.

So we'll let Lando and McLaren
have that one,

but I don't wanna see Zak
with a big smile on his face.

Yeah!

[triumphant music plays]

[all] Lando! Lando! Lando! Lando! Lando!

[music fades]

[Norris] Finally paid off.

Ah, it was good.

It was good.

[man] Yeah. [laughs]

You were scared?

[indistinct chatter in background]

I wasn't. I was okay.

Lando... [exhales] Great win for him.
A big win for Max to lose.

All right, bye-bye. I love you.

Max is a winner.

[man] Come on, mate.

[Button] He just comes to win.
Everything else is a failure.

You know, I would have a meltdown.
I would be in a bad place right now.

It's lonely, isn't it, at the front?

[laughter]

[Norris] Fucking hell,
you think of everything twice as much.

But I don't think
he reacts like most drivers do.

He will come back fighting.

Yeah, I didn't get changed.
I haven't changed.

I'm so happy for you.

Lando, down here. Down at the front.

Too many pictures.

[Horner] Lando, he's starting to...
to play in the big league now.

[man] Well done, Lando.

And with that comes a different pressure,
a different scrutiny.

Some people rise to it.

[burps, coughs]

Is that pure vodka?

Some people... Some people don't.

[ominous music plays]

[music fades]

[water laps gently]

Yeah, Lewis sent me a nice note.

- Who?
- Lewis, Fernando...

- Okay, yeah.
- Vettel.

[Stella] Yeah.

[Brown] Toto wrote me.

Red Bull didn't.

[both laugh]

[applause]

[cheering]

Ever since we've seen Lando win,
you can just tell his confidence...

He walks a little bit taller.

[cheering]

He's very hungry to catch Max.

I'm sure they'll tangle at some point,
uh, in the not-too-distant future.

[reporter] You were friends with Max.

Will that dynamic change
if you keep depriving him of wins?

[Norris] Uh, I'm sure it will.

Uh, I've hated
seeing Max win so many races.

I got lucky. [chuckles]

But winning in Miami
kind of brought back that feeling of

this is why I love doing what I... I do.

And for the first time in my career,

Max is seeing us
as a little bit of a threat.

An amazing few days.

[laughter]

I think it's made me even more greedy
to wanna do it again.

[cheering and applause]

Winning is a drug.

It really is.

Success is a drug.

I've got confidence now.

I know exactly what I gotta do.

That feeling of success

and standing on top of the podium
and having all the team there and

just kind of feeling free,

that's definitely a feeling

I don't think you get
in many other ways of life.

I need to step up even more

if I wanna have that feeling again.

It's definitely a bit surreal still.

I've achieved something
I've always wanted to achieve

since I was six, seven years old.

But then at the same time, I'm like,

"We've done one."

[contemplative music plays]

"Can we do two?"

[crowd cheering]

[dramatic music plays]

[rhythmic beeping]

[commentator 1] It's lights out,
and we're racing at Imola!

Max Verstappen still out in front,

clear of Lando Norris.

[Joseph] You're currently quicker
than Verstappen ahead and Leclerc behind.

[Norris] All good.

I'm pushing, mate.

[commentator 1] Norris closing up
to the back of Verstappen within a second.

[dramatic music continues]

He's absolutely wringing
the neck of that car.

[Lambiase] Final lap, gap is 1.1.

[Verstappen] Leave me to it.

[Norris] I'm pushing
as much as I can, mate.

[commentator 1] Max Verstappen
wins in Imola.

[Norris] Ah, it's frustrating not to win.

Feels a bit more painful now.

[Horner] Well done, mate.
That was a very, very, very strong drive.

[Verstappen] Yeah,
those last few laps. [chuckles]

I had to go flat out.

[dramatic music plays]

[commentator 1] Lando Norris immediately
trying to deal with Max Verstappen.

He tried to jump across.

[Verstappen] Got pushed off in the grass.

- [Joseph] Lando, what do you think?
- [Norris] I think we need to go get Max.

[dramatic music continues]

[commentator 1] Max Verstappen
wins the Spanish Grand Prix.

[music stops]

[Verstappen] That was simply lovely.

[chuckles]

[Joseph] P2, as you know.

Mate, I should've won.
I fucked up the start.

[commentator 1] Lando Norris
started on pole.

It's second for him,
and second in the championship.

[producer] How much
do you want that second win?

I just wanna win every race.

[Horner] I think
he wants to play with the big boys.

Lando's keen to prove himself that,
"I can take on Max."

And it's started to get a bit sporty.

[commentator 3] This is
how the starting grid looks.

And already at the final corner,

Lando Norris rides on the rear end
of Max Verstappen.

I thought he was looking
for an overtake there.

[commentator 4] Lando really wants
to hustle Max to the line.

[Lambiase] No change
to the launch procedure, Max.

[Verstappen] Yeah.

[Joseph] Lando, last car
approaching the grid.

[Norris] Loud and clear.

He wants to win badly.

I wanna win badly.

I don't think it matters
who you are or what you've done.

I'm gonna push it to the limit.

[rhythmic beeping]

[tense music plays]

[commentator 3] A good start
from Max Verstappen.

[tense music plays]

[Joseph] Gap, 0.8.

Come on, son.

[tense music continues]

[Norris] No.

He reacted to my move.

[commentator 4] Little double move
from Max. You're not allowed to do that.

Go on, son!

Yes!

[Verstappen] He overtook
outside the track.

Are you having a fucking laugh?

[commentator 3] He'll have to give
the position back to Verstappen.

Is he going to let
Verstappen back through?

[Norris] He forced me to go wide
and lock up.

[Lambiase] Not entirely sure
how he thinks you forced him off, Max.

[tense music continues]

[Joseph] It was the right thing to give
the position back. Let's get it again.

[Norris] He can't keep moving
after I've moved. It's just dangerous.

We're gonna have a big shunt.

[commentator 4] A real cat and mouse
going on now.

Max sees it coming this time.

[Norris] He can't keep doing this.
If he keeps moving, I'm gonna lock up.

Max is showing
his qualities as a world champion.

To pass Max...
you're gonna have to do it the hard way.

[dramatic music plays]

[Norris groans]

Jesus!

You numpty.

Yeah, he has to give the position back.

I was ahead at the apex.

[Joseph] And he went off track.

[Verstappen] That's not how you overtake.

[dramatic music continues]

- [commentator 3] Late contact!
- [Lando] Jesus!

For fuck's sake.

[Verstappen] Nice. Oh my God.

[commentator 3] Two friends, now rivals,

turned into each other
at turn number three.

[Joseph] Lando,
keep going for now, please.

[Norris] Mate, are you blind?

The car's fucked.

Fuck.

[somber music plays]

[commentator 4] Verstappen
could only manage fifth in the end.

[Verstappen] That's just ridiculous.

[Horner] Yeah, he didn't
behave correctly there, Max.

[man] He just does what the fuck he likes.

He's just a fucking nightmare.

These lot... These lot
actually need to do something.

Not just fucking sit on a fence.
They need to go and do actually something.

[Norris] He ruined his own race
as much as he ruined mine.

It was all his fault.

[Horner] I think Max
is laying a very firm marker

that, "Don't think
I'm gonna be intimidated or bullied."

It's inevitable that competitive nature

is gonna outweigh a friendship.

Um, yeah, tough one to take.

If he says he did nothing wrong,

uh, then I lose a lot of respect for that.

No, I don't think I was particularly
aggressive with anything that I did. Um...

If anyone was aggressive, I think it was
the other way in terms of trying to pass.

[producer] Did he apologize?

No.

[reporter] Would you try
the maneuver again?

Yes, 'cause I did nothing wrong.

That way.

I'm not here to be loved, or whatever.
I'm here to do my job.

I wanted to be a Formula 1 driver and win.

And that's what I'm here for.

[tense music plays]

[man on radio] Lando Norris was forced out
of the Austrian Grand Prix

following a crash
with world champion Max Verstappen.

[tense music continues]

Norris and Verstappen
both blamed each other.

Norris felt he had to show
that he would not be intimidated.

He said if Verstappen were to insist
he'd done nothing wrong,

then he would lose a bit of respect.

[reporter] How do you deal
with all the comments done after Austria

regarding your driving?

Not giving a shit.
Just getting on with your life.

[laughter]

[reporter] Do you think that sometimes
people are too hard with you?

That you don't deserve
this kind of criticism?

Again, just... I don't care, man.

I just go home. I live my life.

I had a few lovely gin and tonics
on Tuesday on the boat,

and, uh, and now I'm here again.

[Norris] So I woke up Monday.
First thing, 8:00 a.m...

I was expecting a text from him.

Just to have a little chitchat.

I probably expected an apology from him.

And I probably wasn't even too upset
about the crash itself.

But, uh, yeah, you just have that respect
that you wanna keep.

[man on radio] To be fair to Verstappen,
it's the first time for a while

where he's having to adjust to having
a competitor regularly in his mirrors.

It's you against the world in that
situation. You got your team as backup.

But everything that you do know

and everything from a friendship
point of view, that goes out the window.

Like, just six months ago, he was

the most competitive
driver/car combination ever

in the history of Formula 1.

And just a few months later,

we're trying to ruin
that reputation that he has.

[Buxton] Austria was
the big moment in their friendship,

But if he's going
to start making the inroads

into Max's championship lead,

he has to start scoring big

every weekend,

and making Max and Red Bull sweat.

[marching band music plays]

[commentator 2] We are here at Zandvoort
by the sea for the Dutch Grand Prix

where the home hero, Max Verstappen,

well, was riding the crest of a wave
at the start of the season.

But the chasing pack have been gathering

and waiting
to try and challenge that lead.

[music continues]

[crowd cheering]

[Buxton] Max, this is
your race day at home.

How are you feeling in front
of this incredible stadium section?

[Verstappen] Yeah, it's fantastic.
Of course, you see this.

It's, uh, yeah, incredible.
Brings a big smile on my face.

[Buxton] There's only one reason the Dutch
Grand Prix is on the Formula 1 calendar.

And it's because the greatest driver
of this generation is Dutch.

[crowd cheering]

[Buxton] Important question.

Is Max Verstappen gonna win
the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix?

[in Dutch] It's gonna be difficult,
but we'll do our best.

[Buxton in English] Good luck.

Since the Dutch Grand Prix
came back on the calendar,

only one driver's won it.

This is Max's house.

[crowd chanting]

[man] Whoa, whoa!

So for McLaren, for Lando Norris,

this is gonna be a pivotal race.

[Norris] Yeah.

Question to Lando. How confident
are you of really having a shot

at the Drivers' Championship this year?

Uh, you know, we...
we probably should've won

t-two, three more races as a...
as a team, uh, but we didn't.

And... [chuckles] Um, we're not saying,
uh, anything more than that.

We should've won, and we didn't
'cause we've not done a good enough job.

I didn't do a good enough job.

So it's not a question that I need
to get asked, uh, every single weekend.

[host] Thanks, both.

Any more?

No more? We will leave it there.
Very well done. Thank you.

[Stella] We shouldn't be
too worried about Verstappen.

I think it's Verstappen worried about

how can he finish
ahead of the two McLarens.

But I think he's more worried about us

and how he can limit
the championship point damage

than, uh, we need
to be worried about Verstappen.

[Buxton] You never know when opportunities
will present themselves in Formula 1.

Look back 18 months.
McLaren was slowest, last.

And now, everyone in the sport
recognizes they've got the best car

and the best opportunity
at taking this fight to Red Bull

for both the Constructors'
and the Drivers' Championship.

[Horner] I don't wanna let McLaren beat us
at either championship.

- Nothing motivates more than that.
- I know.

B-B-Believe me. Believe me.

So... So

That would be a big disappointment
if that were to happen.

There is no guarantee that, in 2025,
they have that same opportunity.

You have to make it count... now.

[tense music plays]

[commentator 2] Max doesn't start on pole
for the first time at Zandvoort.

It's Lando Norris who took pole yesterday.

[crowd cheering]

[crowd chanting]

It's tense, you know.

[tense music continues]

[Horner] Norris is shitting it.

[Norris] You know people are watching you.

And you just know
that, um, you have to perform.

You just have all the eyes on you
from the outside...

that are ready to judge you
and tear you down if you make a mistake.

There is pressure and nerves.

I don't wanna make any mistakes.

[Brown] Have fun, dude.

[commentator 1] And the Dutch Grand Prix
is underway!

Oh, it's a poor start for Lando Norris.

Max Verstappen takes the lead.

[crowd cheering]

- For fuck's sake!
- [man] For fuck's sake.

[tense music continues]

[Norris groans]

[commentator 3] It's the worst-case
scenario for Lando Norris.

[Lambiase] It's good, Max.
Keep it up. The gap, 1.3.

[Verstappen] Yeah.

[Norris] What's the plan from here?

[Joseph] Well, Lando,
we think just plan A. We think plan A.

[Norris] Confirm.

Stay on him, Lando. Come on.

[Lambiase] Lando, 1.1.

[Verstappen]
The car doesn't turn at all in ten.

[Lambiase] Understood.

[Joseph] Lando, how's the pace?

[Norris] Yeah, I think the pace is strong.

[commentator 3] Norris putting pressure
on Verstappen.

[Lambiase] This time, 0.7.

[dramatic music plays]

[commentator 3] Norris is very close.

As close as he's been all Grand Prix
since he lost the lead.

[Joseph] Okay, mate, this is really good.

[Norris] Cool.

[commentator 1] It is very close.

Lando Norris trying to take the lead
at the Dutch Grand Prix.

[commentator 2] Verstappen will try
and fight it.

[man] Come on!

[tense music plays]

[commentator 1] Norris stuns
the home crowd.

[Joseph] Happy?

[Norris] Yeah, all good.

[Joseph] Let's go.

[dramatic music plays]

[commentator 2] And his gap over
Max Verstappen, seven and a half seconds.

[Joseph] Five laps to go.

The gap to Verstappen, 16.

[Norris] Happy with that.

[commentator 1] Nineteen seconds
in the lead,

ahead of the world championship leader.

[tense music plays]

- It's the last lap?
- [Joseph] This is the last lap, yeah.

[commentator 1] Max's home race.
Never been beaten here before.

[commentator 2] The Dutch crowd are
all standing to applaud Lando Norris

and his efforts here today.

[commentator 1] For the second time
in Formula 1, Lando Norris wins

with a crushing performance.

[Joseph] Well done. Well done.

[emotional music plays]

[Brown] Let's go! Woo!

[Joseph] That was a strong, strong drive.
Well done.

[Norris] Thank you so much.
Incredible job.

[Norris laughs]

"Simply lovely," huh?

Lewis leaving from the team
creates a gigantic hole.

I need to look for the next superstar.

It felt like this is now my opportunity
to step up to be a leader.

[commentator 1] Can George Russell
go around the outside?

Big crash!

[Wolff] George, you okay?

[Brown] Dynasties always come to an end.

[commentator 1] Lando Norris wins!

What a day for McLaren.

[Horner] Keep going like this,
we're fucked.

It's great to be the hunter
instead of hunted.

[commentator 2] The two McLarens
going wheel to wheel.

[Norris groans]

[commentator 2] And Piastri
takes the lead.

If I expected him to do that,
he would never have had the chance.

It's fucked.

[dramatic music plays]

[music stops]
