Norris aไnd Ricciardo ꦬwill become teammates at McLaren next season when the latter makes the switch from Renault to replace Carlos Sainz, who is heading to Ferrari for 2021 as Sebastian Vettel’s successor.
Verstappen spent two-and-a-half years alongside Ricciardo at Red Bull and beat the Ausꦕtralian in their final year as teammates together in 2018 before Ricciardo left for Renault.
Despite having experienced Ricciardo’s character throughout his rookie F1 campaign, Norris admits he knows little about how R🧸icciardo operates within a team environment.
“It’s hard to know what to expect until you are really th꧋ere,” Norris said du🧜ring an Instagram live with Sky Sports.
“Before 2018, no one really had the same perspective of Carlos until last year. He really shone a lot more and hi𝄹s personality came out a lot more.
“I🐼 want to say that was a bit down to me and how open I was as a teammate but there was never these memes about Carlos in 2018 or before that. In 2019 and 2020 everything exploded a lot more.
“So, from the outside you never really know what to expect, or know much about a driver until youಌ work with t෴hem. That was the same for me with Carlos.
“It’s the same with Daniel. Obviously I know🐼 Daniel a little bit more than I did Carlos going into the season.
“But there’s still a lot of thไings I don’t know with how he works and how sneaky he is with thing🐽s - more behind the scenes kind of stuff. I will find out next year.”
Norris revealed Verstappen provided him with “a lꦺot of good tips” before Sainz’s arrival at McLaren and he now hopes to find out how to get under Ricciardo’s skin.
“Max gives me a lot of good tips, he knew a lot about Carlos,” he added. “He knows a lot about Daniel. That’s ꦗpart of it, you’ve got to get to know your teammates.
“As much as you want to get along, and sometimes they don’t, you want to know what their weakness𓆉es are and their stဣrengths are and so on. If anyone can tell me them then that’s a benefit.
“You wan🅷t to have fun in F1ꦇ and that’s what I want to do, but at the same time you need to work well with your teammate and as a team, but your biggest competitor is also your teammate.
“It’s going to be tough and there’s going to be a lot of thing🍸s I need to learn from Daniel, but whoever has tips on what makes Daniel angry, I’m sure Max will be the guy to ask.”
