He is my best friend on the grid. “He loves what he is doing. I could see clearly from years ago in go-karting that he was very quick – though we never raced against each other. Everything just came to him really naturally as a driver.“Good performances were not just one-offs or hit and miss; he was always up at the front. “So it was clear he was always going to be here. Some people are quick but don’t know why or how to explain it.“Lando knows what he is doing, and that is good for McLaren. When he first joined Formula One he was a bit overwhelmed. Lando can be a little shy but he is a super nice guy and you can see, from year one to now, how he has grown as a person – and that helps his performance because he has more confidence in himself.”Related “He’s on the same level as Verstappen…” – Hakkinen heaps praise on Norris F1 wives and girlfriends: Meet the drivers’ partners in the 2023 season
