The pandemic has forced everyone to stay inside and people have taken up different activities. The gaming industry has flourished in this time as more and more people have started playing their favorite games. Now, Lando Norris joined the party a little while ago when the Formula 1 season was suspended. He has been playing Call of Duty for a couple of months now. Yes, the F1 driver for McLaren has been spending his free time playing Call of Duty Warzone and he?s getting quite good at it.

The F1 season resumed recently and Norris secured the 3 position in the Austrian GP and 5 in the Steiermark GP. He placed 13 in the Hungarian GP but has had a great run so far. Surprisingly, though, the racer has taken a liking towards Warzone and we think it is absolutely amazing!

Norris took to twitter to share his excitement when he got 18 kills in a match.
18 Kills win on @CallofDuty … maybe not be huge but for me it’s a big W 😁 #GG

But of course, Jack ?CouRage? Dunlop had to get in some friendly banter as he replied calling Norris ?Noob.?
Norris didn?t shy away from responding as he playfully threatened to reveal CouRage?s trade secrets.
Quit that. Don’t make me tell everyone you’re COD “secret to good aim”

But it looks like Norris is getting lessons in Warzone from Dallas Empire pro player Tommey. He also thanked Tommey for being an ?amazing teacher? and we wonder if they?ve been playing together.
You’re just an amazing teacher 🤷♂️

But the story doesn?t end there. CouRage tweeted saying ?Well guys… My racing wheel is here. F1 2020 is being downloaded. Say goodbye to your seat at McLaren, @LandoNorris. There is a new driver on the circuit. Racing streams coming soon.?
You better watch out, Lando. CouRage is known to be great at almost any game he plays. Looks like a streamer has now joined the ranks of F1 racers and it?ll be a treat to see how it turns out.
Other celebrities who play Warzone
Norris is just one of the many players from other sports to try their hand at COD Warzone. We had recently seen how Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios also plays the game and is bloody good at it, too.
"Bro, you already know"
Aussie sporting legends @NickKyrgios, @MitchRobinson05 and @mitchaustin10 dropped into Verdansk to take over the Warzone and absolutely crushed it. Catch the highlights below #LiveFromWarzone #Warzone pic.twitter.com/7ToWq3qJ70

Nick played in a match with other Australian sporting legends, Mitch Robinson and Mitchell Austin. We also recently saw Wiz Khalifa team up with xQc for a charity stream where there were some interesting exchanges between the two. They were joined by YouTuber Vikkstar.
Warzone has quickly grown to be one of the most-played BR games. But Infinity Ward has a lot of stuff to fix. The game is plagued by hackers and the devs have fallen behind in taking care of it. They cannot risk losing players because of cheaters in the game, especially when celebrities are spending their time playing it. A major Modern Warfare glitch was also pointed out by a pro COD league player, which is yet another concern for Infinity Ward. Well, it seems the devs need to buckle up and help the players by getting rid of these cheaters and pesky glitches.
