So I think he copied me and did it even worse!<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It was a really challenging race, the tyres were dropping off and you are pushing the limits. That\u2019s how racing should be, you make a small mistake and you are bitten for it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s heart-breaking after such a great weekend \u2013\u00a0the car has felt great, qualifying was great, the race was great, we were bold with the strategy.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I feel like I let myself and the team down. It\u2019s tough but we will come back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more stories like this,\u00a0check our sport page<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on <meta charset=\"utf-8\"><strong>Facebook,\u00a0<\/strong>Twitter\u00a0and\u00a0Instagram<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2023\/09\/17\/f1-lando-norris-aims-cheeky-dig-at-george-russell-after-singapore-gp-crash-19512391\/?ico=zone-widget_home_sport\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Lando Norris says he feels for George Russell after he crashed out on the last lap while fighting for the lead at the Singapore Grand <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sportstoft.com\/racing\/f1\/lando-norris-aims-cheeky-dig-at-george-russell-after-last-lap-singapore-gp-crash\/\" title=\"Lando Norris aims cheeky dig at George Russell after last lap Singapore GP crash\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":289005,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-289006","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-f1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
