DANIEL RICCIARDO smashed Formula One McLaren team-mate Lando Norris in the face with a SPACE HOPPER ahead of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. But Norris tried to steal a march on his Aussie team-mate by running. Cheating wasn’t tolerated and Ricciardo jumped off his space hopper and hilariously bounced it off pal Norris’ head. Norris says his team have always encouraged him to be himself rather than change. The Brit says the same can’t be said for long-term pal George Russell, who has had the fun sucked out of him after joining Mercedes this season. Norris says he doesn’t he doesn’t see as much of “the fun side” to Russell any more.
