Lando Norris will be determined to return to winning ways at the
Italian Grand Prix after enduring a disappointing Dutch Grand Prix race.
Most recent race
The McLaren driver could not claim a podium spot at the Dutch Grand Prix on 31 August, the most recent race on the 2025 Formula One World Championship calendar.
Norris started on the second grid and went on to finish 18th, having had an oil leak problem, which saw him fail to register a single point.
Formula One title ambitions
The 25-year-old is still placed second in the World Drivers' Championship standings, having accumulated 275 points.
However, Norris is now 34 points behind leader Oscar Piastri of McLaren and 70 points ahead of third-placed Max Verstappen of Red Bull Racing.
Why Norris could win the 2025 Italian Grand Prix
The 2024 Formula One World Drivers' Championship runner-up has won three (Austria, Britain & and Hungary) out of the last five races in the current season.
Norris, who finished second and third in the 2021 and 2024 Italian Grand Prix, respectively, has to win this weekend's race to get his bid to clinch the Formula One world title back on track.
What did he say?
"It's a shame to have ended the race like that today, but it was out of my control and there's nothing I could have done differently," Norris said after finishing 18th at the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix.
"I was having a good race until that point. To have been that close to the car ahead throughout the race isn't easy at Zandvoort, so I'm pleased with my performance. My focus switches straight to Monza.
"Congrats to Oscar and the team on the win, and congratulations to Isack [Hadjar] on his first podium."
