Lando Norris has signed a multi-year contract at McLaren, he and the team announced Wednesday. That means they will continue with their current drivers for the time being, as Daniel Ricciardo is also there until at least the end of 2022. The British team has two of the most sympathetic drivers in the field, and in general Norris has a great favor factor. But does everyone think so?

Positive reactions to Norris contract extension

As expected, the majority of the reactions are positive. Of course, McLaren itself responds to the news, and given the performance of Norris lately, the team will be just as happy with the news as the driver himself.

At the start of the season, and mainly last season I thought Lando was a bit overrated and popular with the youngsters, as he was streaming and all. Now, after only 4 races in the Championship, I can humbly say that Lando Norris has the upmost potential to become a World Champion
