"Disappointing not to have the fans" but Norris accepts the safety first approach

Lando Norris is excited to be heading into back-to-back home grands prix but remains disappointed that there won't be fans lining the circuit.

Racing on home soil is a special feeling for those Formula 1 drivers lucky enough to have a home race, but for Norris, Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, Silverstone will have an eery feel to it over the next two weeks.

“It’s great to be heading back to Silverstone for not one but two home races as we start the next triple-header," said Norris.

“My home race as an F1 driver is a very special occasion just like it was the first time around last year. Obviously, it’s going to be disappointing not to have the fans there, but for everyone's safety the best experience is to watch it from home."

The first three races of the season came at a frantic pace with no letup.

Having enjoyed a weekend off, Norris said: "We’ve had the chance to reset and reflect on what we’ve learnt from our first three races of the season.

"I can’t wait to go racing again and want to ensure we maintain our progress going into the British Grand Prix. The track itself offers fast and exciting racing with great opportunities to overtake.

"We know the competition will be tough, but we’ve got to focus on ourselves, work hard and build on our promising start to the season."
