NIGEL MANSELL is backing Lando Norris to carry his sparkling form on to the unforgiving streets of Monaco this weekend.
And the 1992 world champion is confident that the McLaren driver's pace will ensure Max Verstappen's bid for a fourth straight title is no walkover.
Norris claimed his first grand prix win in Miami and finished just 0.7secs behind Verstappen at Imola last Sunday.
Landing pole position in Monte Carlo will be vital to his hopes of a second victory this season at the most glamorous venue of them all, where overtaking is nigh on impossible.
But Mansell, right, revealed there is plenty of confidence in the McLaren camp that Norris can pull it off.
