McLaren driver Lando Norris showers a kid with utmost love during the 2025 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. The final race of the triple header will be held at the Jeddah street circuit. McLaren is already leading the team and drivers' championship this year. Their closest rival is Mercedes, followed by Red Bull and Ferrari.

There is already a massive social media hate on Lando Norris. Even the critics were too harsh on Lando, calling him unfit to be a world champion, seeing his attitude. But former four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel came in support of Lando and called his attitude true and transparent. 

Seb believes each person has an individual way of expressing things, and Norris is an inspiration for many. He feels Lando’s open mind needs to be respected rather than calling it a weakness. Usually, Formula 1 world champions have a specific character, like Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher, and Max Verstappen. Lando is very different compared with them, as he is more funny and jovial. Former F1 world champions believe Norris should come out of that to become a world champion, calling it weak.

But his fans are not bothered about any comments, as one young fan wanted Norris's autograph. He lined up near the paddock to see Lando Norris, and the British driver was so mature and happy to see his young fan. He gave him the autograph, and the fan rejoiced with joy and jumped. Norris was very happy to see him and left.

McLaren drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are leading the table against Max Verstappen. Oscar won two races this year, with Lando winning the season opener in Australia. Verstappen is the only other driver who won a race this year in Japan. 

Fans are waiting for the intense battle between Australia and the British driver. Lando Norris was the fastest in Free Practice 2, with Piastri in second place. The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix is the fastest street track in the world, and we expect more thrills in qualifying and the main race.
