Anticipation filled the McLaren Garage as eager faces brimmed with hope prior to the commencement of the race in Barcelona. Unfortunately, any aspirations Norris held of securing substantial points were shattered within a few corners. Surpassed by Lewis Hamilton, who started a position behind in fourth, Norris encountered an unfortunate incident. Regrettably, in the very first lap, the McLaren driver collided with the rear of the Mercedes, causing damage to his front wing. Consequently, this led to a sluggish pit stop early in the race, culminating in a disappointing P17 finish. Given Norris' previous impressive performances, it was only natural for the British driver to feel disheartened by the outcome. Nevertheless, having experienced the heartbreak of the 2021 Russian GP, the 23-year-old had learned the valuable lesson of resilience and moving forward.
