Formula 1 world champion Lando Norris jumped behind the wheel of a Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 car in the lead-up to this week's season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
The McLaren driver took part in a special event organised by sponsor Monster Energy, where he sampled a host of rally car and drifting machinery on a frozen lake in Sweden. The event included two fellow Monster-backed drivers, 2003 World Rally champion Petter Solberg and his son, 2026 Monte Carlo Rally winner Oliver Solberg. The latter showed Norris the ropes of the GR Yaris Rally2 car – the likes of which he guided to the WRC2 title last year.
