- McLaren 2019 Formula 1 driver Lando Norris invites Autosport into his home to have a go on his personal simulator set-up. We sent our F2 correspondent Jack Benyon along to pick up some tips, to see how close he could get to the expert, and how much time he could gain after some words of encouragement!

What I like about Lando is that he's just about every other teen/early 20s out there with the exception of being an F1 driver. Likes video games, streaming, memes, and the internet in general. Guy acts like the average shitposter on reddit.
"The average shitposter" on reddit is right, I avoid playing with people like him because they sound childish all the time and I'm not saying they shouldn't I just would rather play with more mature people myself but that description was very accurate lol
@@_LEONKING_ fair point to make. the average internet shitposter isn't necessarily the same as an average person
Why, an F1 driver was supposed to be some divine entity? They're all normal people.
That's exactly the reason why I dislike him. Way too childish to be in F1 if you ask me...
A shitposter who drives cars at 300kph 😂😂😂
An F1 driver with a fridge full of Coca Cola and driving sims in the living room
my dream life
It's Mclaren's sponsor so no coincidence he opened a fridge full of cokes.
Just sounds like my house minus the F1 driver part
that's basicly me but without this "an f1 driver" :/
Milk.
“It’s WTF1 I don’t want that”
Poor Mathieu
Make a gif of that and send it to Matt
Betrayed
Saying what everyone thinks.
Well hello there!
No shoes in the house. I like him already.
So you like all finns because here shoes aren't usually allowed indoors
@@clamantmountain6432 doesn't that apply to pretty much every country except USA?
Here in italy no one has shoes in house even if the most of us have no moquette anywhere...
Cant understand americans that go everywhere in house with shoes even on couch and bed...
@@trollloloololooo look at France they don't know that after you go on WC also exists the BD to wash your ass....
That’s an European thing most countries in America wear shoes in the house
I like this generation's young drivers, they seem like normal people just having a job of an F1 driver. They don't have that impenetrable aura of elitism of the earlier drivers. It really helps the fans to connect with them as individuals.
I don't think all drivers are like that, for example Alonso or Vettel seems more likeable than Max imo
@@MonchiVeg Max is a little smirky shit!
When I was kid F1 drivers were literally demigods, it's true this era, culture, generation of drivers and a lot thanks to DTS helped to demystify drivers
He’s just like a regular kid besides his simulators.
And the amount of shoes :D :D
Which is a good thing.
Yeah a regular kid whose father is a millionaire just like any other normal kid
@@stephenonen5989 almost everyone in racing must be a millionaire
@@antoniom1876 Kimi's dad wasn't😂 They didn't even had indoor bathroom when Kimi was a child. Kimi is few of pure talents out there. It's nearly impossible to be a racing driver of you come from poor family.
When you realise that Lando’s sims are worth more than your house...
yeah youre looking at 15k a piece, those are leo bodnar wheels at $3500 each just for the base and electronics boxes
not really
How cheap is your house?
Rexoid and George... you obviously didn’t get that my comment was a joke
You can build a rig that's functionally identical to this for around £6,000. Average house price in UK is £240,000
To be honest a G29 or t300 stuck on a desk with RF2 , AC , iracing , R3E lets you enjoy sim-racing and still learn tracks and that can be done for under £300.
That's what's awsome with sim-racing unlike real racing it's really not about having money and expensive kit.
The expensive kit is just nice for immersion and some specific training.
I've raced with lando several times on iracing. Notice how i said raced with and not against. We were in the same race, only thing is by the time the race was over he was usually about 20 or so seconds ahead of me lol
I've only been in a session with Lando once, it was an IMSA race where he was in GTE and I was in GT3. I've also seen Max Verstappen in an F3 practice, Shane van Gisbergen in a Bathurst practice, and Scott Speed in a rallycross practice. In the same session... not necessarily on the same level :P
He's a decent driver but the top people can put 20 seconds on him as well.
He is rather dirty when racing up front. Avoid at all costs.
Lol
@@TheDrewker i think hes fast and will be faster than Verstappen in F1.
In Iracing with a setup like that i will be faster about .10 or .20 seconds.
Everyone talking about his shoes and his simulator, but the kid has a Richard mille watch (cost roughly around $200,000 - $350,000 ) just causally sitting there. xD
Naaaaah not allt he Richard Mille watches are that Much bruh
Worth as must as someone is willing to pay for it.
Richard Mille is his sponsor he definitely got a huge discount/for free
He is not Nadal 😂😂😂
Its a sponsor and they get them for free or they are actually borrowed, Lewis Hamilton has talked about this in an interview.
lando:its the best sim rig that you can get as a consumer
also lando sticks monitors together with cardboard and tape
He puts that there to stop the light from his studio lights from leaking between the two monitors and distracting him. Its not pretty but it works.
@@travisdegen8428 r/wooosh
What other way would you do it as a 20 year old ?
SkinnyFoxy n.. no..
i mean, if it works, it works?
Omfg I died when he said ‘oh it’s wtf1 I don’t want that’ I’m dead ahahh
Where is it?
Neon 3:10
@shakers97 exactly if that was hilarious you might need to find some more fun things to do..
1.4s off Lando Norris. Still faster than williams. 😂
faysal kadir Hehehehehe . Very true!!!
The track is small and in a long one the difference would grow
Senna C. Approx 2.8 secs difference then
A. Lalpourwal ok?
5:47 i can't believe he used that go-karting "trick" in a sim XD
You probaly dont even know What karting is, btw its not Go-karting its karting🤨
@@itsalx1688 You probably haven't seen my videos XD But some people, maybe American usually say go-karting, so i used that term. Is it so shocking to you?
Cesar Ferrolho karting is real karting. Go karting you can rent
@@itsalx1688 Ok then, but both Karting and Go-Karting drivers do it. I'm amateur and mostly drive in races with rentals, but there are some serious talents there. I saw a video the other day where Lando Norris entered a race of rental karts with some friends, and even in qualifying he couldn't go beyond 5th place. But long story short... rental kart drivers also lean forward in the straights sometimes.
Cesar Ferrolho he’s not leaning on the straight he’s hitting a button on the steering wheel
I love how he's a huge fan of racing sims as well
@Peavii Most practice with said sims. There are various videos of people playing against max verstappen and lando on various ocasions
@Peavii I mentioned practice not race, because they can do it for fun obviously. Anyways, just goes to show I was agreeing with you yes!
Best way to learn the tracks. In these games they are accurately laser measured to within mm’s.
He´s 21 years old pro racer, how the hell he would not be!
“Lando shows us how to drive”
Lando “go into settings, find internet, hit disconnect” 😉
Great for you guys to feature this. I enjoy iRacing myself and love that real world racers like Lando, Rubens Barrichello, Sebastian Loeb, Scott McLaughlin, Shane Van Gisbergen, a whole host of US Nascar drivers among many others use it as a legitimate training tool to keep themselves sharp.
Omg you didn't mention Nicki Thiim :O Can't believe it haha
and Scott Speed lul
@@KaiRobinBN sebastian loeb doesnt sim race i dont believe that.
Kai Robin BN Didn’t he get banned from the service?
@@jessejones1102 yeah, luckily
11:44 Lando has got frickin grooves in his hair whree the headphones has been sitting😂😂😂
So do I .-.
happens to just about everyone including me lmao
Matt from WTF1 is going to be butthurt :D
I've never seen so many racing helmets on an IKEA shelf before
plenty of helmets inside ikea too
I like him from day 1. Cool dude. Awesome driver and seems a nice person.
I bet that thing can crush a spreadsheet and make quickbooks scream!
Or at least that's the pitch I am formulating to my wife.
wife screams: get back into your cage!
What an incredible set up omg
Let's hope Lando does not have his career trashed like Vandoorne at Macca
True.... Hope he doesn't... !!!
He's lucky because Alonso will not be his teammate.
There will be no Fernando, so it will be fine :)
yeah without Alonso..
the thing is people think that car is fine but driver is the reason.. ffs either you people are just forgot how bad is the car or just don't know anything about what's going on for few years
Vandoorne had very good history of racing before f1 but no matter what Alonso always outqualified and always ahead of him even with almost same car
hell even managing to get to q2 with McLaren is hard thing to do but Alonso somehow pushed the limits of the car and managed to do it (not always)
i hope this young gent's career doesn't get hampered by the car (not McLaren but car) and with a little bit of luck he can have a future on f1
With Vandoorne it wasn't just about having Alonso as his teammate. He simply wasn't that good. Yes Alonso is a very tough benchmark but Vandoorne hasn't shown enough to write it off to the car. He's been way behind consistently.
Great video - really enjoyed the feedback Lando gave on how to improve the lap! 👍
Lando is such a normal young guy that’s is exiting to watch drive and fun to watch interviewed.
Thank you for promoting simulation in the real world for racing enthusiast.
i have always been inspired by simulation racing ever since grand prix legends , after about a week of spinning the car round in the pits, i managed to get a 3% world time on the track monza in the lotus 49, with norris's setup i might get back into it again, good luck in f1 race today lando!
Lando comes across as a decent everyday young man, which given his profession and 'life options' is great to see. Real personality, which is again rare in F1.
I would give the reporter 7/10 he was only 1.4 sec off Lando's time and he is one of the fastest drivers in iRacing, so I think he did pretty well
yea thats what i was thinking im on iRacing a lot and still over a sec away from from lando times
it's a 44second track which is very unusual.Now double that and you get to 1 28 min which then would be 2.8 seconds which is an eternity in racing.In an entire f1 race he would be 3 minutes behind the leader.I managed to get 0.5 sec within lando in iracing. I'm no where near making it as a professional in f1
@@makakolumba6909 the dude jumped into a car lando picked for him and put in a few laps within 1.4sec on his first go on iRacing.. sit down big head
@@makakolumba6909 I agree, 3 sec off pace in a medium track length is too much, but I'm assuming for someone who is not familiar with simracing its really good , I might be wrong though, he could be one of the regulars in iRacing :)
Rhaegar Targaryan he knew the track based on the few attempts he needed to set a time. he knew the game and he genuinely thought he did very well
We've raced Lando a few times on iRacing.
username checks out :D
We don't have any recorded races with Lando yet, but had some good Skip Barber races against him. He tends to race the GTE Le Mans series now.
Is he good in the game?
Yes, he's usually the quickest in the races I've done against him
and if he´s not the quickest he´s trolling the cars in front of him...
Great video!!! Both of you sound like good people to be around!!! Good luck to both of you!!!
An incredible F1 driver, that is. Solid 8 for you, mate!
Hahhahaha 'a driver of some skill' . . . excited to see Lando in F1 next year!
You got to respect the personalised weatabix!
Driving lessons from lando. Priceless
I love this moment 10:30. never seen a fridge full of the same drink and the fact that he thinks about it is all the mind-blowing!
Hahaha he gotta show off the sponsor 💰
Great to see Lando’s simulators. For all the naysayers out there saying there only games, you really misunderstand. Coupled with VR they are an absolute thrill ride in your living room, and a real training tool, from the hobbyist to the real racer 👍🏻
changed from 3 monitors to Vr. It's game changing in racing simulators.
@@DanielProsini
Yeah, except for some endurance racing, it's awesome!
I’ve been thinking about buying a sim setup to help me shave off some time. Keeping in mind that most of my budget goes to buying tires and brakes, about how much does a “good” VR sim setup cost?
@@johnd9357 1.000$ for a good seat and rig + 800$ for pedals + 700$ for steering wheel and feedback and maybe 1200$ for PC + VR. So a total of ~3500$. It's a great setup then though, with high quality products.
@@DizMizzer Interesting. I might have to do this. I know nothing about PC "gaming" so I'd basically just need to follow someone's advice. All my budget right now is going to the real life race car, but after May I'd like to build a sim rig. Thanks for the tips. I need to start putting a parts list together.
I love how lando has his wtf1 on his helmet
Lando streams on Twitch from time to time - www.twitch.tv/landonorris
What a driver he’s became and how much he’s grown up, moving to Monaco soon
Those are some bad-ass sim rigs!
“It’s wtf1 I don’t want that” Is probably my favourite line ever
Lando- "a driver with some skill" LOL!!! Love that kid!
Lando is so cool and modest.
9:19
The reaction of Lando hahaha
Great video!
You seem like a good person Jack, God loves you and may you be blessed brother :)
Wow. This guy races on the same track with legends race and have raced. Crazy!
TH-cam recommended this why ever, but I think he is one of the best drivers on the grid and could give Mercedes and redbull a good run for they money
Looking forward to seeing this guy battling it out with Russell next season. McLaren and Williams are at a low point right now, but I want to believe they will start improving come next year.
Yeah, that's a no for Williams
Yeah, that’s a yes for McLaren
this became a big oof
Sad thing is that he is now beating gasly in a worse car
Alex Iliescu ooohhhhhhh this hasn’t aged well. Feel so sorry for Russel
That fridge though... awesome. I'm looking forward to see this guy in F1, already a big fan.
Corsair air 540 case!
I had that same case for years, it's an awesome case!
"A driver with some skill, myself." Lando Norris
10:10 'no he's not' killed me!
Cool place and awesome first name.
Lando is a good guy.
When you realise Lando has the small gap between his monitors blocked with cardboard and tape lol.
Legend has it he's still over a second off.
Can you do more of these videos? I think I learn quite a lot and since I don’t even have home or laptop or well PlayStation or Xbox well... this is the only way I can manage to get something
Lando and Sainz both seem like really good people
Sainz for sure. Just deeply decent.
Damn shots fired at wtf1 😂
That sim is the stuff of dreams
I've either seen this video before or I've seen clips of his house used in part of another video related to the very same thing....I could've swore it was like a setup video of him receiving his sim rig equipment and them setting it up.
Nice insights.
Shots fired on WTF1, He doesn't want it there!😂😂
I love it when real drivers embrace the home simulator. It’s the future of motorsports. It’s really to bad Codemasters has the official F1 license. Someone else could make a much better title.
Sure, give it to milestone. I'm sure they could do better. Lol
Oh because EAS sports is doing such a wonderful job with it ...blaahhaaaas
@@kochj0713 EAS sports?
To be fair, Codemasters is doing a good job in the latest games really, it's not a simulator but it has all the elements of realism just made easier by having more grip, unlike every other game dev who decides that not being a simulator means they must make the handling as easy as possible so you can win everything on the first go without much concentration... Plus they got the game pad assists just right; at least in the 2017 game, they have no controllability disadvantage vs wheel users so they can go just as fast without going so far that it would disadvantage wheel users and that's important for bringing more people into the racing genre, especially for the simulators.
Codemaster has the license because F1 wants to earn money. A simcade is more accessible for casual players than a sim, so it gets more sales.
My dream room! Good Norris! ♥
Hes one of us
*drifts through final corner*
Lando: tHaTs HoW yOu StArT a LaP bOyS
Yes because he has lost a lot of speed coming on to the main straight meaning the next lap is compromised.
@@eoinsweetman9263 thats the joke
When is he gonna race with Jimmer!
What are you talking about? They have raced multiple times in iLMS already.
@@math001 race with, as in, same team!
Nuno Rosário yeah they did couple of times lol
It was on Sunday I think. Max was there too, great race.
He did😁
Love this guy
2:29 I have the same mouse as Lando Norris! First step towards a rig like this aye
So what are the products for this sim. Any links to pricing
Now Lando is sitting 4th, above Vettel... he has come a long way.
A future gem, along with kvyat...
He's the one on iRacing so this guy has done mega well to be a second off
Was nice of Lando to give him all those laps and still he couldn’t get within a second on very short track.
Oh and unless you won the lottery don’t bother looking up that Pro-Sim gear cause it’s basically real racing car parts
When i saw the title "he's going to spin again" thought it was a video about sebastian vettel.
Such a nice kid!
I love lando's laugh
5 outta 10 ..... the brutal truth! If it was easy everyone would be doing it
David F 1.4 sec on a 43 sec course is waaay off the pace
We all know what Lando means when he said "even I"😂
So what setup is this exactly? Mainly interested in the motorised seat section
I like the way he’s got a air freshener balancing on top of his sim equipment lol
The shift paddles on he steering wheel are so tactile
Magnetic
Monitor size? 27"? 32"? Thanks in advance
That tape holding the screens in place xDD
I loved racing against him in IndyCar fixed C
Aww so cute look at them dressed the same 😂
I'm surprised his sim doesn't move.
That shift light looks like an add on to the wheel. Wonder where I can get it along side the wheel mount.
👍🍺
Incredible! Really cool video!
P.S. And 30-40 years ago people played Pole Position on 8-bit computers and consoles...
👍🍺
3:27 *nervous laugh* "no"
11:35 describes Lando
Very cool!
THX for the sweet sweet dub :)
I've got the same headset so im pretty much a pro
10:37 music?
1:38 sellotape holding things together, McLaren should be proud xD
Awesome!
