In a shocking development ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix, McLaren has announced that star driver Lando Norris will not be taking part in this weekend’s race due to ongoing health issues. The decision was confirmed by the team just hours before Saturday’s final practice session in Barcelona.
Norris has reportedly been battling a persistent medical condition that has impacted his physical readiness for the intense demands of Formula 1. After discussions with team doctors and medical staff, McLaren decided it was in the best interest of the driver’s long-term health to withdraw him from the event.
In an official statement, McLaren said: “Lando Norris will not participate in this weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix due to ongoing health concerns. His well-being remains our top priority, and we fully support him in focusing on recovery.”
The team’s reserve driver is expected to step in should McLaren choose to continue with two cars on the grid. This sudden change is a major setback for the team, which has been gaining ground in the Constructors’ Championship and was hoping for a strong performance in Barcelona.
Fans and fellow drivers have flooded social media with messages of support for Norris, wishing him a swift and complete recovery. With the 2025 season heating up, McLaren will now have to regroup and reassess their approach as they look to stay competitive in the races ahead.
More updates are expected as the situation unfolds.
