Norris and Leclerc: Why they’ve signed long-term deals

Scott Mitchell-Malm joins Edd Straw to discuss the news that Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc have committed their long-term futures to McLaren and Ferrari respectively. They explain why they've both put pen to paper at this particular point in time (particularly when, in Norris' case, there was still a lot of time left on his existing contract), why their teams have chosen not to reveal the length of their new deals, and what this means for the driver market going forwards, now two big names are off the table.
