Lando Norris voted F1 rookie of the 2019 season

Lando Norris has been voted best rookie of the 2019 Formula One season by its fans.

Norris debuted with McLaren this year and was part of a rookie class which also included Williams' George Russell and Red Bull's Alex Albon. Russell beat Norris and Albon to the Formula 2 championship in 2018 before all three stepped up to the main championship.

F1 put the award to a vote this week, which it promoted with an entertaining series of videos featuring Norris, Russell and Albon arguing why they deserved it more than the other two.
