Norris downplays McLaren expectations despite topping opening test day
Lando Norris believes that topping the times on the opening day of pre-season testing is almost worse than being bottom, as it will increase expectations to a level that McLaren might struggle to meet. Ferrari had led the way for the majority of day one at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, but Norris went clear of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz with two late runs on soft C4 tires, being the only driver to go under 1m20s. His lap of 1m19.568s left him 0.6s clear of Leclerc, but Norris said the end result could actually prove to be a bit of a burden for McLaren.
