The six defining moments of 2025 that helped Norris become World Champion

After a roller coaster of a season, Lando Norris has been crowned the World Champion of 2025. There have been so many dramatic moments in a long year, full of twists and turns, and I’ve picked out six of what I think are the most defining points of Norris’ championship season…

Winning at Monaco is every young driver’s dream and the pressure always peaks in Qualifying. Lando arrived in the Principality short on form and 13 points off Oscar Piastri’s championship lead, but then delivered one of his finest weekends of the year.
