Lando Norris has come down with suspected food poisoning on the eve of the Brazilian Grand Prix weekend, McLaren have confirmed.
On Thursdays, drivers spend much of their time at the circuit fulfilling their media obligations ahead of a race weekend. But Norris is absent today having complained of feeling unwell, and so will remain in his Sao Paulo hotel.
McLaren confirmed the news to Mirror Sport, who had been in the process of arranging an interview with the Brit. The team also posted publicly, telling fans: "Lando is feeling unwell with suspected food poisoning, so he will rest in the hotel today. We expect him back at track tomorrow."
