The McLaren driver finished in points again, finishing fourth in the British Grand Prix, his home race. With a fourth place finish and twelve points, he became the only driver in the history of the Woking-based team to have completed 15 consecutive points.
Having finished a few points last season, Norris has stepped up his game for 2021. And indeed, he has done as he remains the only driver this season to have points in every race so far. Therefore, it is not surprising that the young Briton is making an impact in McLaren history.

The Briton has claimed three podiums for the team this season
Norris has helped the Papaya team score crucial championship points this season. In addition, the 21-year-old has been on the top step three times so far this year.
The first being at Emilia’s GP, where he had to fend off Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc to earn a third place and grab fifteen points for the team. He later achieved a podium at the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix, beating Red Bull‘s Sergio Perez for the P3.
Finally, it was at the Austrian Grand Prix, where last year he landed his very first podium in Formula 1. In 2021, the Briton had to keep this compatriot Lewis Hamilton in his mirrors as he won a new third place for the team.
