That's not to take anything away from Leclerc, and may sound harsh, but it felt more like Lando made things happen for him.
I saw it the other way round! Leclerc made things happen when he was in a position to do so. Norris kind of went backwards fast early on and that stellar FL aside was perhaps fortunate to get on the podium!

That aside I was absoloutely chuffed to bits for the lad, he's doing a great job and surely will only get better!
