Lando Norris Sets the Pace in United States Grand Prix Practice<\/h2>\n\nLando Norris demonstrated his dominance in the practice session of the United States Grand Prix, setting an impressive pace and throwing down a challenge to his teammate and championship rival, Oscar Piastri.\n\nNorris arrives in Austin with a 22-point disadvantage compared to Piastri in the standings.\n\nThe British driver faces unspecified “repercussions” from his team, McLaren, after it was determined that he was responsible for contact with Piastri on the first lap of the Singapore Grand Prix.\n\nIt is understood that these consequences will be of a sporting nature, and Norris suggested that they could affect him for the rest of the season.\n\n\n

McLaren CEO Zak Brown called Norris’ action “minor” and stated that the consequences would be proportional, adding that their only rule is not to touch each other.<\/p>Zak Brown, CEO of McLaren<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Sauber’s Nico H\u00fclkenberg achieved an impressive second place, followed by Fernando Alonso in fourth.\n\nMax Verstappen, who has tentatively emerged as a title contender, is 63 points behind Piastri before the weekend. Verstappen was fifth fastest, more than three tenths of a second behind.\n\nThere are 33 points at stake over the weekend in Austin, with Saturday’s sprint race followed by Sunday’s main race.\n\nLewis Hamilton, five-time winner at the Circuit of the Americas, had a good initial session and was more than half a second ahead of the rest of the pack in the first runs on hard tires. Once the soft tires were fitted, he descended in the order in his Ferrari, finishing the session in eighth place.\n\nThe sprint race classification will begin at 16:30 local time (22:30 BST).","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
