Lando Norris believes the Australian Grand Prix's circuit layout is the main reason why McLaren has completed its best qualifying session so far of the 2024 Formula 1 season.
Norris and Oscar Piastri qualified fourth and sixth respectively, but both will move up a spot after a three-place grid penalty for third-fastest Sergio Perez. While Piastri couldn't wring an optimal lap out of his MCL38 in Q3, Norris' four-tenth gap to Red Bull''s polesitter Max Verstappen is the smallest it has been this year, while he was only a tenth and a half slower than Carlos Sainz in the Ferrari.

'When we look carefully at the overlays with some other cars, we actually recognise the same strengths and weaknesses that we have observed in the first two races,' Stella explained.
