Norris returns

British single-seater star Lando Norris will return to the Toyota Racing Series next year to defend his title. Norris, who also won the Formula Renault Eurocup and NEC crowns this year, will rejoin the M2 Competition team he won the 2016 title with. Norris said: “The aim is to defend my title. TRS set me up nicely for this season, so hopefully it can again. The five tracks are really interesting and will get me race sharp again for when I return to Europe in 2017.” The first round is at Ruapuna Park on January 14/15.
