Italy’s Euro 2020 final victory was overshadowed by a number of off-field incidents. McLaren F1 driver Lando Norris was involved in a robbery after the Euro 2020 final, in which his watch was stolen. The Formula 1 driver announced that he felt traumatized after the violent incident.

According to the AP, McLaren said in a statement: “McLaren Racing can confirm that Lando Norris was involved in an incident following the Euro 2020 final at Wembley where the watch he was wearing. Fortunately, Lando was unharmed but he “is understandably shaken. The team supports Lando and we are sure that the racing fans together wish him all the best for the British Grand Prix this weekend.
