Norris sparkles in Sao Paulo despite firework mishap

Apart from getting too close to a firework, Lando Norris was virtually impeccable during a Sao Paulo Grand Prix that challenged the drivers to their very limits.

Lando Norris was hit by fireworks on the podium after the Sao Paulo Grand Prix but although he initially held his head after the incident, McLaren team boss Andrea Stella later said he was unhurt

Showing off on the podium after winning the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Lando Norris made his first misstep of an afternoon that had challenged the Formula 1 drivers to their very limits.

Norris jumped off the top step, and tried to do his signature move, where he uncorks the champagne bottle by bashing it into the ground.

Except that, not for the first time, the force of his jump pushed things too far, and he smashed the bottle.

Then, holding up the shattered top to the crowd below, he stepped backwards and inadvertently put the side of his head into the sparkles blowing up from the fireworks on the front of the platform.
