Lando Norris drops F-bomb on live TV after winning Miami Grand Prix
Lando Norris finally broke through with a Formula 1 win on Sunday, and he was so excited afterward that he briefly forgot the unwritten rules of live television.
Norris benefitted from a mid-race safety car that allowed him to pass Max Verstappen. The 24-year-old held the lead to win the Miami Grand Prix for his first career Formula 1 victory in more than 100 tries.
As he was taking in the moment after the race, Norris dropped an F-bomb on the live ABC/ESPN broadcast. You can see the video, but beware that it obviously contains a curse word:

Norris made his Formula 1 debut in 2019. He has come close to experiencing victory on multiple occasions, which is why he was so relieved on Sunday. Norris certainly is not the first athlete we have seen drop an F-bomb on TV after getting over the hump.
