Norris: Sudden punctures “shouldn’t happen”

Lando Norris has shared his thoughts about the tire issues numerous drivers faced at the Qatar Grand Prix.

Details:

• Norris, Valtteri Bottas, George Russell, and Nicholas Latifi had punctures during Sunday’s race.
• The McLaren driver admits that tires breaking down that quickly was unexpected.

What he had to say:

• “I guess you don’t expect the tyre to blow up, especially not on the hard tire.”
• “We weren’t even that far into the stint, 20 laps or something, and the tire should do a lot more than 20 laps.”
• “Every track, you look after the tires because the tires wear out a bit but you don’t expect it to suddenly let go completely.”
• “[It was] quite dangerous for a lot of people today. It shouldn’t happen.”
