McLaren driver Lando Norris will be determined to impress when he competes in the
2021 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix on April 18.
The Belgian-British star had a good start to the 2021 season by finishing four at the Bahrain Grand Prix on March 28.
Norris also finished in the same position in the season-opener last season which was the 2020 Austria Grand Prix.

The 2021 Bahrain Grand Prix was won by Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton as he started the new campaign on a winning note.
Red Bull Racing-Honda driver Max Verstappen and Valtteri Bottas of Mercedes finished second and third respectively on the Bahrain International Circuit.
Norris, who is in his third season in Formula One, is placed fourth on the World Drivers' Championship standings.

Norris was happy with how he performed in Bahrain and he is looking forward to competing with his new McLaren teammate Daniel Ricciardo.
“It is a good start, particularly passing Daniel on lap one, but it is just going to be ‘you lose some and win some," Norris said.
"I don’t want to say I look great because the two of us are very close at the moment and he could have the upper hand on me at the next race. It is going to swing both ways.
“He is a very competitive guy, he is very fast as he proved in qualifying, and I am sure we are going to have some close battles. I don’t want to be over the top and say I outdid him.”
Mercedes are placed at the top of the Constructors standings and they were followed by Red Bull Racing and McLaren-Mercedes respectively.
