In the build-up to the British Grand Prix, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri appeared on Heart Breakfast with Amanda Holden. Norris took the opportunity to reveal that he had failed his driving test. This is only the second time the 2024 Miami GP champion has passed the test.

Norris explained that he failed the theory part of his driving test. He said, “I failed the theory part. The part where you have to think! I’m not really good at that, so…” This confession allowed the hosts to engage the duo in a mind games – two of the most difficult questions in the theory part of the driving test.

The first question is about braking distance. Norris answered safely about braking early. This prompted his “special judge”, none other than David Coulthard, to say that if he wanted to win the British GP this weekend, he would have to brake later!

In the end, Piastri defeated his teammate resoundingly. The British could not answer any of the questions correctly. However, driver #81 passed the test, proving that Norris had failed the theory driving test the first time.
