"If McLaren give me a car, that's fine, but I don't tend to buy fancy stuff anyway or super-nice clot..." — Lando Norris

In karting, you turn up and drive, look at the data and go home. But I like doing more, learning about the engines and how to make them go even better.

That's one of the biggest things. Never being home, always traveling, having different interests and focusing on different things, just the time aspect of going back home and seeing them, you don't have that at all. It was a big sacrifice but, at the end of the day, it was worth it.

In karting, in the European races, you have the cameras and the film crews and you do interviews. At around 13 I'd already started doing bit of media and it just increases more and more with every level you take, especially when you get into cars - and when you hit F1 it's an even higher step up. It's something you get used to over time.

I've been away since I was pretty much eight, traveling to the car tracks, and then going to Europe and traveling more.
