Lando Norris remains best of the rest in F1 standings after 'enjoyable' United States Grand Prix

McLaren Formula 1 star Lando Norris claimed a sixth-place finish in the United States Grand Prix thanks to a late run of speed and some hard-earned luck.

The Bristol-born Somerset driver finished as the best of the rest and had some exciting battles with his rivals around him but was a witness to the big crash between Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso, which resulted in the latter being handed a 30-second time penalty after the race.

Despite having to run through a large amount of debris on the home straight, Norris sustained no damage and was able to pit under the safety car, undercutting Valtteri Bottas and coming out in the final points position.
