Lando Norris' Dad Calls Out Charles Leclerc in Unseen Abu Dhabi Footage

Lando Norris' dad, Adam, appeared to call out Charles Leclerc during the aftermath of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

On Sunday afternoon, Norris became the 35th different driver to win the Formula 1 world championship after he finished third in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Max Verstappen, who won the race around the Yas Marina Circuit, finished the season two points behind Norris, who became the first McLaren driver since Lewis Hamilton to win the world title.

During the race, Norris had to overtake the likes of Kimi Antonelli, Carlos Sainz, Lance Stroll, Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda after making his first pit stop on Lap 18.

Aside from cutting through the field, Norris also had to deal with Leclerc, who was on the charge in his Ferrari.

In the early laps, Leclerc kept himself within Norris' DRS and made life extremely difficult for the Brit.

However, in the closing stages, it became clear that the Ferrari SF-25 simply does not have to pace to catch the McLaren.

After the race, a video of Leclerc congratulating Norris was posted on social media.

In the video, Leclerc said to Norris: "I was pushing flat out."

At this point, Norris' dad, Adam, appeared to reply: "You were pushing too much!" before the pair shared an embrace.

Speaking as the freshly-crowned F1 world champion, Norris admitted that he has previously said 'stupid things' that he 'regrets'.

He said: "I know I say some stupid things that I regret and I wish I could take back and never came out of my mouth.

"I honestly believe I give more respect than anyone else. I give more respect to Oscar. I give more respect to Max. I try and give as much respect as I can to Lewis. He’s a seven-time world champion. He’s the best driver there has ever been in Formula One. I’m not even close to that, and I might never be."
