McLaren driver Lando Norris has insisted that he is looking to usurp Max Verstappen at the top of the standings.
Verstappen cruised to a third consecutive title last season but the Brit believes that he and Red Bull can be stopped.
“If you were to say ‘are they beatable?’, you’re going to have to say ‘yes’,” Norris said. “I think we’re going to want to believe to say yes, because we were very close at certain times – and at certain times we did beat them.
“So the question is, can we beat them over a season? Because I think that’s going to be the challenging thing and I think that’s going to be very difficult to do with how well they’re performing. So [I’m] optimistic. Possible to beat them at certain times? I want to believe so, yeah.”
