Norris says he gets along well with Alexander Albon and George Russell. “We get along well because we karted together. I also get on well with Carlos Sainz and Max Verstappen," Norris reported in the Beyond the Grid podcast.

It's clear that both Norris and Sainz spur each other on at McLaren. The team gives the two drivers plenty of freedom to do what they want. According to Norris, everything is sincere.
