Lando Norris is already in disbelief over what he’s heard about Mercedes’ ‘big upgrade’ for Sepang

Sky Sports F1 reporter Ted Kravitz reported that McLaren driver Lando Norris expressed disbelief regarding rumors surrounding Mercedes' upcoming car upgrades. Norris reportedly labeled claims that Mercedes could gain half a second per lap at Sepang as ridiculous, following leaks and paddock estimations about the W17's next development package.

The update is expected to arrive after George Russell secured pole position and claimed victory for Mercedes at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix by just 0.196 seconds. The planned package would mark only the second major upgrade of the season for the Mercedes W17 chassis following an earlier update at the Canadian Grand Prix.
