‘I can just chill out about it and just go for it,’ says Briton

Race winner Oscar Piastri 34 points clear in standings
Lando Norris has said he will “chill out and just go for it” in an effort to bridge the gap to his McLaren teammate, Oscar Piastri, after the British driver was forced to retire from the Dutch Grand Prix and the Australian took a 34-point lead in the world championship.
Norris was just nine points behind Piastri going into the 15th round of the season at Zandvoort but an oil leak cost him dear. With seven laps to go when he was in second place and just over one second behind Piastri, Norris was left helpless as his car ground to a halt by the side of the track.
