The 22-year-old Brit had a breakthrough campaign last year as he secured four podiums, as well as his first pole position at Sochi. He came agonisingly close to a maiden win at the Russian venue, too.

He finished 6th in the standings last year, just 4 and a half points behind former teammate Carlos Sainz, and 45 ahead of teammate Daniel Ricciardo.

Norris will head into 2022 hoping to secure his first victory as McLaren aim to get back to the glory days and return to the front of Formula One.

Andreas Seidl:

“The opportunity to extend our relationship with Lando reflects not only our commitment but our belief and confidence in his talent. It is also a strong sign of trust and commitment from Lando in us as a team and our journey to world championship contention. Lando has shown impressive growth as a Formula 1 driver over the past four years and has been an instrumental part of the team’s momentum and performance trajectory. We are still on our journey to fight at the front and Lando is a key element of our plan, so to lock him into place, alongside Daniel and our senior leadership, gives us stability and continuity as we build towards our ultimate shared goal of world championships.”

Lando Norris:

“Teams are about people, and I love the people and feel at home at McLaren. I have grown up in this team and I’m part of this journey we’re all on. Last season was another great step, both in my career and the team’s performance, and I see and feel all the work, investment, and commitment for the team to be in a position to challenge for wins and titles in the future. This all gives me huge confidence looking forward, so it was a natural decision to extend our relationship for the next few years.”
