Lando Norris suffers another podium disaster after smashing Sao Paulo celebrations

Lando Norris was celebrating his victory in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix when disaster struck on the podium.

Lando Norris suffered another podium disaster in his smashing celebrations at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

Norris claimed his third victory of the season in Interlagos in a wet and wild race, beating Max Verstappen by 14.6s and Isack Hadjar by 24.4 to record his 14th career victory, and first since the Netherlands in August.

However, after the British national anthem and receiving his trophy, Norris went to conduct his usual podium celebration of smashing the champagne bottle to spray it - but unfortunately, he did so too hard and smashed the bottle to the ground. 

He then took a few moments to compose himself after the smash - which is the second podium incident he's had.

After the 2023 Hungarian GP, when he smashed the champagne bottle, he accidentally did so too close to Verstappen's winner's trophy, knocking it off the top step and smashing it.
