Norris sorry for downplaying Hamilton’s F1 victory record

Lando Norris has ap olo - gised after downplaying Lewis Hamilton' s achievements following the sixtime world champion' s record-breaking victory at the Portuguese Grand Prix.

Hamilton went past Michael Schumacher' s record of 91 race win s but fellow British F1 driver Norris suggested the 35-yearold's Mercedes should be winning every race.

Norris, 20, has since apologised and wrote on Twitter: "I owe an apology. I've been stupid and careless with some things I've said lately in media and interviews and I haven't shown the respect I should have to certain people.”
