Singapore provided another contentious intra-team McLaren moment, as Lando Norris overtook Oscar Piastri in the opening corners of the race, with the help of a bit of contact. It was a race where you could sense the Australian’s growing frustrations, as he again had his championship lead nibbled.
There are two aspects to this: the stewarding side, and the team side – and it’s the latter where Piastri’s frustrations lie.
Technically speaking, this wasn’t a move that was penalty-worthy from Norris. I liked the attempt. It was punchy, gutsy and quite simply had to be attempted by a driver looking to boost his hopes of winning the title after a difficult Qualifying session.
