<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Norris said: &#8220;If you kind of compare it [Monza] a little bit more to Spa probably, I think we were still pretty good there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously, Red Bull were very quick there, but Red Bull have always been very good at Spa, specifically.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here it&#8217;s a bit of a question mark. It was probably one of our worst races last year, mainly because I just sat behind Alex [Albon] the whole race, but it was genuinely one of our trickier races that we did last year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re not expecting to be probably as good as last weekend, that&#8217;s for sure. We always knew we were going to be very good in Zandvoort.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But it&#8217;s a weekend where we&#8217;re expecting good competition with all of our competitors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Sky
