Norris on drivers adapting to different cars
Lando Norris says any Formula 1 driver who cannot adapt their driving style to different cars is “not at a good enough level”, after George Russell questioned whether he needed to change his approach to suit the new generation of cars. Norris said: "If you're not ready to adapt to a different car, yeah, then you're not at a good enough level, simply. It's our job, it's what we've got paid millions to do. It's to drive any car you get given, whether it's a good one, a bad one, an easy one or a hard one. You have to do it."

Resta on software bug behind Russell's recent top-speed deficit
Mercedes deputy technical director Simone Resta said a software bug in the team’s power unit system contributed to George Russell’s recent lack of top speed compared with team-mate Kimi Antonelli, with Russell also running an older power unit. Resta said: "We found a bug in our software, and we had to react to it. There was already something there at Silverstone, but the issue was more evident at Spa, which is one of the tracks with the highest lap time for power delta. We think we've finally understood it and nailed it coming into Budapest. The software is the same for all the cars, and it was there in every car, but it affected George more than Kimi."
