David Coulthard has suggested that McLaren star Lando Norris is ‘the real deal’

The McLaren star Lando Norris is "the real deal," according to Formula 1 icon David Coulthard, but Oscar Piastri, his teammate, is a fierce rival. One of the best driver combinations now on the grid is Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. If McLaren can improve during the winter, they should be able to challenge Red Bull the following year, based on the improvement they achieved in 2023. Eddie Jordan and David Coulthard were having a conversation on the Formula For Success podcast.

It must be on Lando Norris's mind when he wins his first Formula 1 race. The 24-year-old has more podium finishes than any driver in Formula One history without ever taking the checkered flag first. Although McLaren had a difficult first half of 2023, their upgrade package was a complete success, and Red Bull's main competitors were suddenly Norris and Oscar Piastri.
