Lando Norris launches junior racing team to support young driver development
Summary

F1 world champion Lando Norris has established a junior motorsport operation titled LN4 Fusion to assist young drivers in progressing toward Formula 1. The initiative, announced ahead of the Italian Grand Prix in Monza, will participate in various feeder series starting next year. Managed by former Prema team principal Rene Rosin, the program will field teams in the Italian F4 Championship, FIA Formula Regional European Championship, and FIA Formula 3 Championship in 2027. In addition to the racing team, Norris is launching the LN4 Legacy Programme, an independent scheme designed to provide financial and logistical support to talented drivers.
