Lando Norris admits he was “pretty worried” he’d lose his spot on the Formula 1 podium after struggling for pace in the second half of the Monaco Grand Prix.
Norris ran in fourth for the opening stint, moving up a place from his starting grid position due to Charles Leclerc’s non-start.
The McLaren remained within touching distance of the leading trio before the round of pit stops.
Norris struggled with performance when he switched to the hard tyre and came under pressure from Red Bull’s Sergio Perez in the closing laps.
The young Brit managed to fend off Perez to score his second podium finish of the season - a result that moves him up to third in the drivers’ championship.
