The Monaco Grand Prix is thought to be one of the toughest of the season with minimal room for error. Lando Norris took a glorious podium for McLaren at the Circuit de Monaco after starting 5th. The Briton revealed the demanding nature of the track and how it feels to drive an F1 car through the exhilarating street circuit.
In a video posted by WTF1's Twitter handle, Norris claimed that the real satisfaction in the Monaco Grand Prix comes from completing the qualifying lap and race on Sunday with the car in one piece. The narrow and sudden turns make it significant for the drivers to approach the circuit in a way that they are simply relying on the feel of the car and essentially becoming one with it.

A bit of luck and I want to say some good driving and a good car all weekend. We’ve had a strong weekend. So thanks to the boys and girls, this one is for them."
