When the lights go out for F1"s curtain raiser in Melbourne this weekend, 19-year-old Lando Norris will become the youngest British driver ever to start a Grand Prix. He"s also the youngest driver on this year"s grid, which just so happens to be the youngest in F1 history. Not only that, he"s taken the seat vacated by veteran Fernando Alonso. But if he"s feeling the pressure, he"s certainly not showing it. Well, maybe a bit How does it feel, being so close to your first GP? When I was young, waking up at whatever time in the morning to watch the Australian Grand Prix, I remember thinking one day that"s what I want to do". It doesn"t feel like that long ago. And now I"m here. It"s pretty weird to think about how time flies. And how you can progress so much.
