The 22-year-old missed media day on Thursday after complaining of feeling unwell. McLaren later confirmed that it was suspected he had food poisoning, and that he would remain at the team hotel to give him the best chance of recovering in time to compete.

As this is a Sprint race weekend, qualifying takes place on Friday giving Norris a shorter timeframe than usual in which to get better. As a precaution, the team began to prepare Mercedes reserve Nyck de Vries to step in if required, with other potential options Stoffel Vandoorne and Oscar Piastri not at the circuit.
