Lando Norris left furious at ‘IDIOT’ crash after hitting the wall at Saudi Grand Prix

Lando Norris’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix hopes were severely damaged after suffering a big crash during qualifying.

The Formula 1 world championship leader looked in contention for pole position along with McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

But during the crucial Q3 session, the British star made a clumsy mistake in the high speed section to crash into the wall and put himself out – bringing out the red flag in the process and brandishing himself as an ‘idiot’ in frustration over the team radio.
