Oscar Piastri has revealed that Lando Norris’ dwindling F1 title hopes have seen McLaren revise its rules on team orders again from the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
McLaren has decided to prioritize Norris’ chances over Piastri’s following an incident at Monza that cost them a 1-2 finish. Piastri has followed team instructions in previous races, but Norris’ struggle to 6th place at Interlagos has almost dashed his championship hopes for 2024. Verstappen’s remarkable comeback has put him close to retaining his title, with a chance to seal the deal in Las Vegas this weekend. McLaren is reconsidering its team guidelines, with Piastri being allowed to keep race wins but might help Norris in certain circumstances. Piastri is focused on winning races while acknowledging the need to support Norris if necessary in the remaining rounds of the season.
