In the race, Norris recorded his third podium finish of the year with second place. It put him one top three finish away from equalling his highest number of podiums in a single season. All three podium appearances so far this year have been second place finishes. Norris recorded McLaren’s best Singapore Grand Prix result since Jenson Button finished as runner-up in 2012.

He became the 15^th different driver to have finished on the podium at the event, 15 years since it first joined the calendar. Norris has gained two positions from where he started on all three of his Singapore Grand Prix appearances.

2023 JAPANESE GRAND PRIX

Lando Norris’ third place in qualifying for the 2023 Japanese Grand Prix marked the first time he qualified inside the top seven at Suzuka.

On Sunday, Norris became the first McLaren driver to finish on the podium at three consecutive races since Lewis Hamilton at the first three races of the 2012 season. Norris recorded the first podium finish from 10^th on the grid since Max Verstappen won the 2022 Hungarian Grand Prix having started in the same position.

2023 UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX

Lando Norris made his 100th start at the 2023 United States Grand Prix and made this the 23^rd time that a driver has started a century of races with a single team. Norris recorded his third front row qualification of the season. His second place marked the first time McLaren qualified on the front row for the United States Grand Prix since Lewis Hamilton did so with the team at the inaugural race at Circuit of The Americas in 2012. It was the first time Norris has qualified in a position other than eighth at Circuit of The Americas.

As a result of Hamilton’s disqualification, Norris was promoted from third to second in the final order. Norris is now one 2nd or 3rd place finish away from equalling Nick Heidfeld as the driver to have taken the most Formula 1 podium finishes without winning a Grand Prix.

Norris became the first McLaren driver to record four consecutive podium finishes since Jenson Button did so between the 2011 Indian Grand Prix and the 2012 Australian Grand Prix. Norris recorded McLaren’s first podium finish at COTA since Hamilton won the inaugural race with the team in 2012.

Norris gained 12 positions from where he started, which is the most places he has made up in a race during his Formula 1 career.
