Lando Norris teased Max Verstappen after Verstappen and some others criticized the new 2026 Formula 1 cars for being difficult to drive or not as fun.
Norris jokingly suggested that if Verstappen doesn’t like the new cars, he could always retire instead of complaining.
Norris’s comment was light-hearted but also made the point that all drivers are adapting to the new rules together, and saying one driver dislikes the changes doesn’t mean others feel the same way.
His tease highlights the competitive banter between drivers as teams work to understand the 2026 cars better.
