## Resource

Seems like being a world champ has less impact these days. Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs Another day, another Guardian journalist involved with an F1 driver. This time around, Lando Norris was asked about his thoughts on the F1 2026 regulations and he was prevented from doing so by his own managers. Why? In a twist, that encounter was published along with the original article about Norris winning a prestigious award, the Laureus. On a joyful day, Lando's mood surely was ruined. It also adds a brief glimpse into the world of Formula One drivers and how much control there is over them in 2026. So many layers, so much yapping to do! #f1 #landonorris #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #f1regulations #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #mclarenf1team #mclaren #mclarenf1 #norris #f1cars #f1car #f1teams #f1team #f1drivers #f1driver #f1gossip #f1drama The F1 world champion SHUT DOWN by his own staff! https://youtu.be/USEL8LwbzVE Hosted on Acast.
