However, despite all his car-related miseries, there is only one thing that will make the McLaren man leave the sport altogether.
There is still plenty of time to talk about Norris’s retirement in the sport. However, there is one thing that would make the Brit quit racing instantly. It’s nothing serious, for the general public we mean, but for Norris, it would be enough to go belly up on Formula 1.

During an interview with YouTuber Tom Daley, Norris talked about his family, his life on track and off of it, racing against his idols, and everything in between. However, during this ‘in-between’ conversation Norris made the revelation of what will make him quit F1.
Norris revealed during the conversation he doesn’t eat much on a race day. So to keep his stomach light but also to keep himself satiated, he gets a tiny chicken wrap for lunch, which gives him a nice energy boost as well. This chicken wrap has been a staple in his diet for the past two years. To give you some details, it’s a chicken teriyaki with some pineapples. Interesting combination, but the Brit loves it!
In fact, this is the chicken wrap that has kept him going. When Tom Daley asked what would happen if he didn’t get the wrap, Norris confessed, “Oh, I wouldn’t drive. I’m out!”
Well, there you have it folks, apart from the neck thing, only the absence of the chicken teriyaki wrap with small juicy pieces of pineapple on it will make Norris call it quits! Apart from that, Norris is all about pure racing. In fact, he proved that with his opinion on the Las Vegas GP.

Thanks to all the attention that F1 has gathered in the past few years, the sport has become extra welcoming toward the desire and need to put on a show. In fact, the sport is going to massive lengths to live up to the expectations of the fans expecting to see a show every race weekend.

In fact, the grand opening ceremony of the 2023 GP was proof of that. However, apart from the silly business of the track, Norris did not appreciate it on the track. The Brit himself prefers the weekend to be about racing more than anything else.
“It’s more of a show than it was a few years ago, to be honest, I just want to come here and drive,” said Norris after the 2023 Las Vegas GP opening ceremony. “I’ve never been the biggest fan of doing these types of things,” he added.
