Lando Norris Reveals Ambition for Triple Crown After First Win
Highlights
- Lando Norris completed Monaco GP and F1 World Championship wins
- Norris considers competing in the Indianapolis 500, part of Triple Crown
- Only Graham Hill has achieved the motorsport Triple Crown so far
- Norris inspired by Alonso and Hulkenberg’s success beyond Formula 1
- Norris aims to win Indy 500 and 24 Hours of Le Mans
- He remains focused on defending his current F1 world title
Lando Norris signals openness to motorsport’s Triple Crown after securing the Monaco Grand Prix and the Formula 1 drivers’ title, leaving the Indianapolis 500 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans as targets.
Only Graham Hill completes the feat. Debate persists over whether the F1 element is Monaco or the championship, but Norris holds both, strengthening the case that his Formula 1 pillar is complete.
A recent visit to Indianapolis sharpens focus on his intentions. Asked about entering the Indy 500, Norris refuses to close the door, recognising the event’s magnitude for drivers and for McLaren.
Norris frames Monaco as “part one done” and notes he already owns an F1 crown. He views the remaining pieces pragmatically: two iconic races, distinct skill sets, and limited calendar windows.
“There are two more to do,” Norris says, keeping the Triple Crown firmly on the horizon.
Cross-discipline examples inform his thinking. Fernando Alonso’s Le Mans successes and Indy 500 bids, plus Nico Hulkenberg’s Le Mans win, underline realistic pathways beyond F1 for elite single-seater talent.
Only Graham Hill has completed the motorsport Triple Crown.
The risk-reward balance remains central. Extra programmes demand preparation, simulator time, and team alignment, while Norris prioritises title defence and consistency after McLaren’s recent momentum and a McLaren upgrade.
McLaren’s historic ties to Indy add appeal, yet scheduling and contractual constraints mean any crossover must fit F1 obligations. Norris’s public stance remains cautious, but his curiosity is unmistakable.
Momentum also matters. Norris’s form since Monaco, and how it translates to upcoming rounds such as the Canadian GP, will shape timing for any broader programme discussions.
Team dynamics play a role. His forthright stance when he recently defended McLaren suggests strong organisational alignment, a prerequisite for parallel projects in IndyCar or endurance racing.
Monaco win and an F1 title mean Norris has effectively completed the F1 pillar of the Triple Crown debate.
For now, he keeps focus on grand prix weekends. Acknowledging the Indy 500 and Le Mans as live ambitions ensures the Triple Crown narrative shadows every step of his title defence.
