A video of Lando Norris revealing that McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown had promised to purchase the Briton his dream car if he won a Formula 1 drivers' championship has resurfaced after his 2025 victory.

Norris secured his first drivers' championship victory in Abu Dhabi after finishing the race at the Yas Marina Circuit in third behind championship rivals Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri.

Since his win, footage has resurfaced which would indicate that if Brown keeps his side of the deal, he could owe Norris a Pagani Zonda.

The footage is a compilation of clips following on from a 2024 interview Norris did with The Telegraph. "I’ve got a deal with Zak – that if I win the championship he has to get me a car," he said at the time. "I’ve specified which car. We shook on it, but that’s all I’m saying. There’s a long way to go, it’s still a lot of points. But who knows?"

 

The video then cuts to an interview with Heart Radio, where he confirms that the car that he and Brown have made a deal on is his dream car since he was a child. "I can't say it! It's my dream car since I was a kid but it's not a McLaren," he explained.

In a later on-stage interview, the 26-year-old confirms his dream car is the Pagani Zonda. The sports car can range from hundreds of thousands to millions of pounds for a special edition.

If Norris does in fact receive a Zonda, it will be added to an already impressive car collection. Included in his garage are a Ferrari F40, a Porsche Carrera GT, a bespoke Land Rover Defender, a Liberty Walk R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R, a McLaren 765LT Spider, a McLaren Senna and a Lamborghini Miura.
