Lando Norris has been on a roll, leading many laps in recent races. But the Las Vegas Grand Prix might be his toughest challenge yet. The track is known for causing tyre issues, something Norris has struggled with in the past. Norris admitted he's not a fan of front graining, a problem that makes the car hard to control. He's been working on improving this weakness, but Vegas' cold and low-grip conditions make it a big challenge. If he can't manage the tyres well, it could cost him the race. McLaren has also been working on this issue. They've made some progress, but Vegas is different. The tyres wear out quickly here, and the rain hasn't helped. It's washed away the rubber build-up that usually helps with grip. Pirelli, the tyre supplier, has warned drivers to be careful. They need to get the tyres to the right temperature quickly, or they could damage them early on. This could force teams to change their strategies, maybe even stopping twice during the race. Norris has been leading the championship, but Vegas might not be as easy as the last two races. If he can handle the tyre issues, he could be on his way to winning the title. But if he can't, it could be a tough race for him.
