"You're afraid of Charles, aren't you?"- Lando Norris asks Carlos Sainz

“You’re afraid of Charles, aren’t you?”- Lando Norris asks Carlos Sainz, as the Spaniard has joined Ferrari for the 2021 F1 season.

Carlos Sainz has finally joined forces with Ferrari, but the Spaniard has not left having fun with his partner at McLaren Lando Norris, as the duo once again had an entertaining session with Sky Sports, released on Youtube, where the two hijacked the broadcast.

In the middle of the episode, the two were asked about their new teammates, as Sainz will be pairing up with Charles Leclerc at Ferrari, while Daniel Ricciardo will be replacing him at McLaren.

“You’re afraid of Charles, aren’t you?” Norris asks. “Yes, I’m shaking,” Sainz agrees. “And Ricciardo? How are you going to control the Honeybadger?”, Sainz asks. Norris has a simple solution for this: “I’m going to overfeed him so he gets overweight.”

If people are worried about the bromance coming to an end, Sainz says it’s not necessary. “We’re still going to play golf together, but you need to get better,” he says to Norris.

What am I going to miss about Norris? It’s a secret- Carlos Sainz

In the episode, both were asked what do they admire about each other the most, to which Sainz said that it is something he doesn’t want to say publically.

“Everyone has their secrets,” says Sainz.  Whereas, Norris was much outspoken about it and said, I don’t know, there are a lot of them. But the worst thing is if you’re fast and rub it in,”

Sainz and Norris have been regarded as the most wholesome duo of 2020 in Formula 1, with the duo being spotted pranking and making jokes on each other over the last two years.

Now, with Norris joining forces with Daniel Ricciardo, one can expect even more humourous content from McLaren for next two years at least.
