Lando Norris fronts new Etihad Airways campaign

Formula 1 world champion Lando Norris has fronted a new advertising campaign for Etihad Airways, highlighting the airline’s Business Class cabin. The partnership follows a multi-year agreement signed in February between Etihad and McLaren Racing, which includes the McLaren Mastercard F1 Team and the McLaren World Endurance Championship Hypercar squad.

Separately, Norris discussed his decision to opt out of a group karting session in Malaysia with fellow F1 drivers, including George Russell and Oscar Piastri. While other drivers participated in the activity ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix, Norris chose to focus on personal training and downtime. He noted that he prefers to separate his personal life from his professional persona on the track, stating that he does not believe off-track activities necessarily improve competitive relationships between rivals.
