Lando Norris’ agent pictured in discussion with Red Bull’s Helmut Marko

Iꦕt will set tongues wagging about the hugely enticing prospect of Norris becoming a Red Bull driver one day.
, who pictured and reported the intriguing meeting hours before the F1 British Grand Prix, said “it would be extraordinary, too, if [Norris’ agent] and Marko did not take a few moments to discuss the impressive form of McLaren d🐻river Norris”.
But Mark Berr🌳yman, who represents Norris, has other reasons for meeting the Red Bull consultant.
His company ADD Management also rep🃏resents F2 driver Zane Maloney, who is in the Red Bull jܫunior programme, among other talented prospects.
"It was the sort of meeting which happens every weekend in the paddock a hundred 🍰times over," The Telegraph wrote.
However, proof of the close relationship between Red Bull and Norris’ agent will only heighten specul🐬ation about a massive future move.
Norris stole the show at Silverstone, qualifying then finishing in second, even briefly overtaking Max Verstappe🔴n.
He has a close friendship with Verstappen, too.
And with Verstappen’s teammate Sergio Perez coming under intense pressure from within the camp to keep his seat, a meetin𒀰g between Marko and Norris’ ag﷽ent is only going to ramp up the rumours.
Perez is contracted until the end of 2024 with Re🧔d Bull, Norris is tied to McLaren until the end of 2025.
