‘This guy is dangerous’ – Lando Norris fumes as he is forced off the track TWICE in Max Verstappen F1 duel
LANDO NORRIS raged at Max Verstappen for “dangerous” driving after being forced off the track twice during an intense battle at the Mexico Grand Prix.
British Formula 1 driver Norris, 24, came into the weekend knowing he had just five races to make up a 57-point deficit to Verstappen in the drivers’ standings.
Defending champion Verstappen took the lead of the Mexico GP in the opening lap, but was then passed by pole-sitter Carlos Sainz.
Third-place Norris quickly gained on his title rival in the Red Bull and attempted to overtake around the outside but was cut off by Verstappen.
Norris went off the track and came back on ahead of Verstappen.
The Dutchman then tried to pass Norris and in doing so pushed the McLaren off yet again.
Immediately after the incident, Norris told his team on the radio: “I was ahead the whole way through the corner.
“This guy is dangerous. I just have to avoid a crash. It’s the same as last time.
“I’ll be in the wall in a minute.”
The stewards did not punish Verstappen last weekend when a battle with Norris also saw the Briton run off the track.

But on this occasion they looked at the incident and gave Verstappen a 10-second penalty for “forcing a driver off the track”.
They then added on another 10-second penalty for “leaving the track and gaining an advantage”.
Reacting to the incident, Sky Sports pundit Martin Brundle said: “I had a feeling he would have something else coming his way [another 10-second penalty].
“The first one was rude and cheeky, the second one was just plain dangerous.
“That’s just about a full pit stop, for a penalty.”
After learning of his initial 10-second penalty, Verstappen sarcastically labelled it “quite impressive,” before his engineer claimed there was “a lot of whinging”.
The three-time world champion ended up coming into the pits and served the 20-second penalty in the paddock, before he returned to the race.

Spinners Noman Ali, Sajid Khan steal headlines as Pakistan beat England at home- The Week
Spinners Noman Ali and Sajid Khan suppressed England’s batting attack inside three days and earned Pakistan a long-awaited and series-clinching nine-wicket win in the third and final Test on Saturday.
The 38-year-old left-arm spinner Ali and off-spinner Khan, 31, had grabbed all 20 wickets on a recycled second Test pitch to level the series last week and yet again clipped the batters on an engineered dry surface by sharing 19 wickets as England was dismissed for 112 on Day 3.
It was England’s lowest innings total in Pakistan, eclipsing its previous score of 130 all out in Lahore in 1987.
Pakistan, which got a meaningful 77-run first innings lead, reached 37-1 at the stroke of lunch to notch its first home series win since 2021 when it beat South Africa 2-0.
Skipper Shan Masood (23 not out), who lost six successive test matches as captain before England got beaten in the second test, sealed the win with a six over long-off against Shoaib Bashir after smashing four successive boundaries to Jack Leach.
It’s special, Masood said. The first win came after a long time and it was backed up by a series win it’s about character. To be here and standing as the wining team, it’s the most special thing for us.
Leach grabbed the only wicket to fall when he successfully went for an lbw television referral against Saim Ayub, who made eight.
The win was a sweet revenge for the home team, which was knocked over by England 3-0 when it last toured Pakistan two years ago under the captaincy of Ben Stokes.
England’s batting folded meekly against the spin duo for the second time around as Ali followed his three wickets in the first innings with 6-42 on a wicket which was dried out by industrial-sized giant fans and outdoor heaters.
Khan grabbed 4-69 to add to his first innings six-wicket haul as England batters couldn’t negotiate the variable bounce and the turn Khan and Ali extracted of the pitch.
England won the first test by an innings and 47 runs before Pakistan succeeded in its ploy to reuse the same surface in Multan to counter England’s aggressive batting and recalled both Ali and Khan for the remaining two test matches.
Disappointing, said Stokes, who missed out on England’s memorable win in the first test recovering from torn hamstring, but returned to lead the side in yougher conditions for his batters. We got thrown some challenges over these last two games and weren’t able to stand up to them, credit to Pakistan.
Resuming on a precarious 24-3, Joe Root (33) and Harry Brook (26) cut down the deficit to 11 runs before England lost wickets in cluster.
Brook got a thick edge when he tried to cut Ali and the left-arm spinner had Stokes lbw off an armed ball which the England captain awfully tried to leave. England was still trailing by two runs when Jamie Smith (3) charged down the wicket to Khan and had his off stump knocked over and England slipped to 6-75.
Khan then ended Root’s grim resistance by finding the outside edge before England’s tail folded quickly against the spin duo.
The lads trained hard but when you get out in the middle it can be completely different, Stokes conceded.
The 2-1 series win was Masood’s first series win since he was appointed test captain last year, but lost six test matches in a row. Australia routed Pakistan 3-0 under Masood’s leadership and Bangladesh recorded a stunning 2-0 win in Pakistan before England racked up record-breaking 823-7 decl. to hand Masood another defeat.
We’d like to dedicate this (series win) to the people of Pakistan, who’ve been through a lot, Masood said. Hopefully this will put a smile on people’s face, and hopefully we can have full houses

Popular F1 driver facing axe BEFORE the end of the season as team chief says ‘difficult decisions have to be made’
A POPULAR Formula One star is at risk of losing his spot on the grid after a disastrous home Grand Prix.
The 34-year-old was out to end his six-month podium drought in Mexico but came 17th.
But his Red Bull car struggled with braking problems, with reports suggesting that his poor year could see him axed in the final four races of the season.
Asked about his future, team principal Christian Horner said: “Look, it’s a performance based business. There comes a point in time that difficult decisions have to be made.”
His comments come after chief Helmut Marko added: “The hoped for upturn that we all expected has unfortunately not materialised.
“He may have a contract, but F1 is a meritocracy. If the performance is not right, even contracts are useless.”
Max Verstappen will have a new team-mate if the man under pressure, Sergio Perez, is axed.
And Liam Lawson is supposedly an option to replace Checo.
The New Zealander has impressed for RB in recent weeks, who are the team owned by Red Bull.
Lawson came to blows with Perez in Mexico after a controversial overtake.

Perez raged post-race: “I think the way he has come to F1, I don’t think he has the right attitude for it. He needs to be a bit more humble.
“When you come to F1, you’re obviously very, very hungry and so on, but you have to be as well respectful off track and on track.
“I don’t think he’s showing the right attitude to show a good case for himself.
“I think he’s a great driver and I hope for him that he can step back and learn from it.
“In his two first Grands Prix, he has had too many incidents. I think there will be a point where it can cost him too much.”
