Lando Norris tested McLaren’s new MCL-HY Hypercar at Algarve last week. He completed 38 laps in the car during the session.
The run was enough for Norris to get a feel for the top class machinery used in the World Endurance Championship. It also gave McLaren feedback from its Formula 1 driver as the company prepares for its planned 2027 debut.
Both reports said Norris viewed the test as relevant rather than insignificant in the wider Formula 1 picture.
