Lando Norris, confession on Valentino Rossi: "He made me understand everything"

McLaren driver Lando Norris to Formula1.com talked about Valentino Rossi and how he inspired him: "I love Valentino, he also inspired the design of my helmet. When I started racing I commissioned my helmet from a designer and told him, 'I love Rossi'”.

"It's from there that è the idea of a black, chrome and orange design was born. Rossi had the sun and moon on his helmet, with me there were two suns. And the design è was adapted and developed".

Not only style, Valentino also inspired Norris in life philosophy: "I understood from him how to enjoy it and have fun at the same time. È he has always been the kind of rider who likes everything he does and the more he is passionate about an activity, the more he enjoys it".

"There are also some things that we can do in sports to make it more enjoyable and fun, and he certainly è managed to do this throughout his career".
