“I think he’s already under pressure,” Hill told the about Perez before Silverston൩e. 

“They cannot afford to h♔ave a car that good and not𒀰 have two cars right up there for the championship.

“Possibly Lando. He’s still got 🍸a few more years left at McLaren. 

“I was surprised when he signed such ജa long-term deal [until end of 2025]. It’s a long time, I’d have done three years tops.

“If you’re that confident in yourself, you need to be able to move when the time is✨ right.”

Hill was speaking before news of Dan🐬iel Ricciardo's return with AlphaTauri. Ricciardo also hopes to land a ♔Red Bull seat in the future.

Norris has long been touted as one of F1’s future sta🍎rs and last week’s P2 at his home race, ahead of other British favourites Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, was a standout moment in his career so far.

The upgraded McLaren has rocketed itself to behind only Red Bull in the current꧃ pecking order heading into Hungary, adding a new intrigue to Norris’ 𝔍future plans for a competitive car.
