Tom Holland’s appearance in the paddock was greeted with the Spiderman theme song from the McLaren garage. Holland loved the gesture, however. “I loved that … I thought it was hilarious! If you walk down the pit lane in Monaco, the entire McLaren team plays Spiderman; it was fantastic.”

Holland also announced that he spoke to Lando Norris prior to the interview. “We just wrote back and forth and I wanted to see him at the race before the end of the year, but I don’t think I’ll have time.”
Fans have often compared Norris to Holland – both share the same curly hair and are typically British. Brown also fits the role of Happy well, with Ricciardo resembling Tony Stark. With our own multiverse in the McLaren garage, we might be seeing an F1 x Marvel movie soon!
Lando Norris is ready to lead McLaren into P5 battle
Lando Norris has an important race ahead of him that could bring about big changes. First there is the obvious P3 battle against Ferrari. With 38.5 points in between, only a result as good as Monza can help the Papaya team.
A more achievable goal is P5 on the driver’s panel. Norris, who was once P3 in the first half of the season, will have to fight for position with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc. Norris said: “We want to end the season well for a number of reasons. I want to be ahead of Ferrari and be ahead of them as a driver. If we cross the finish line ahead of them as a team, all the better, but that’s a very long way to go. “

Leclerc won’t make it easy for Norris, however. “It gives us a little extra motivation, also because we’re not fighting for the top positions – I wish we were – but in the end I still have a place in the championship that I have to keep this weekend, which is the fifth place . So I’ll do my best. “

But wait, there’s another player in the game; one very close to Norris, his former McLaren team-mate Carlos Sainz. The Spaniard is 4.5 behind Norris and also has an eye on the P5 result. “I’m still fighting for P5 in the drivers’ standings. Third place for the designers looks good. So I must have played a pretty decent season to be in that position. “

A fight in midfield that is almost as good as the title run. It’s a shame that Tom Holland wouldn’t be there to encourage his friends for the crucial weekend.
