Luxuries and lavishness abound in the Formula 1 scene, yet the drivers also need to take care of their looks since they are prominent figures on the most coveted stage in all of motorsport. However, unlike some of our drivers who have redefined the industry with their stylish choices, we also have people like Lando Norris, who, despite owing $1 million eye-catching beast, always carries a $1200 possession with him.

In addition to being one of the most brilliant drivers on the F1 grid, Lando Norris also happens to be a fun-loving individual who is still fairly young. And much like the majority of lads who have an obsession with something during these years. The British racing driver has his eyes stuck on a $1200 in possession that always stays with him.

Lando Norris is not just a skilled F1 driver, but he is also a sharp thinker and strategist. The 23-year-old has been experimenting in several industries with his market sense, helping him establish himself as a successful businessman. And with that, it is widely recognized that he also values top-notch luxury. According to CA, eight of his 13 vehicles fall under the category of premium automobiles, and among them, three are valued at $1,000,000, which includes a 710 hp McLaren 720s.

Nonetheless, despite possessing such a spectacular supercar in his garage, the 23-year-old F1 youngster was more fixated on his $1200 possession, similar to his other obsession with $4 Capri Suns. So what is it that has caused Norris to keep himself away from such a beauty in his garage and run behind a $1200 object? So, unlike other drivers who have established standards with their wardrobe choices, Lando Norris prefers to put his comfort first.

In a recent interview with Esquire, Lando Norris discussed his passion for finding a brand that meets his needs. In his conversation with Gaby Keiderling, Norris disclosed that he inhabits three different worlds and needs a comforting item. He also mentioned the brand name that was providing him with the required satisfaction. During his lengthy conversation, he said. “There’s three different worlds that I live in: the work, the comfort, and the fun. For classy wear, I think I’ve got every different colorway of Zegna’s Triple Stitch sneakers.” While providing the reason behind having the shoes of Zegna he added, “They’re just like a smarter shoe; I can wear them at work, and I can wear them out.”
