Lando Norris furious after IndyCar screwjob.

As a result of raising over $12,000 for the COVID-19 Response Fund in a charity stream, Lando Norris is set to shave his head.

The McLaren driver participated in a Twitch Stream aid event on Saturday which ended up raising just over $2million for the cause.

$12,000 of that came courtesy of Norris’s stream, which was mixed news for him. Earlier in it, he had pledged to shave his head if the donations exceeded $10k.

An anonymous $700 donation pushed the total over the edge, and the Brit quickly burst into laughter.

He later took to Instagram to thanks his fans for all the donations and confirm what’s to come…

“Thanks to all my viewers for raising over $12,000 by the end total for #twitchstreamaid and the fight against Covid-19!”

“I do have to cut all my hair off now though…”

His team-mate and buddy Carlos Sainz commented on the post saying “Oh boy I’m ready.” Us too Carlos, us too.
