McLaren boss ‘no longer impressed’ by Max Verstappen as Lando Norris closes on title lead – RacingNews365 Review
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella joked that he has “stopped being impressed” by Max Verstappen, who claimed a remarkable pole position at Silverstone, stating that “he can do anything”. Despite this, Verstappen denied both McLarens pole for the British Grand Prix with a brilliant final lap in qualifying.
Lando Norris achieved a double first by securing victory in a chaotic, rain-hit British Grand Prix, earning his first win on home soil and back-to-back wins following his success in Austria seven days earlier. Norris celebrated in front of a record crowd at Silverstone, with 168,000 fans.
Max Verstappen was left shocked by the “very extreme” penalty imposed on Oscar Piastri during the British Grand Prix. The championship leader, who had been leading at Silverstone, faced challenging conditions with multiple safety car periods early in the race.
F1 stewards explained their decision to issue Oscar Piastri a severe 10-second time penalty during the British Grand Prix due to an overtake on pole-sitter Max Verstappen during a safety car restart at Silverstone.
Oscar Piastri chose not to discuss his costly time penalty during the British Grand Prix, fearing that his comments might get him “in trouble”. Despite leading the race in difficult conditions and facing numerous safety car restarts, Piastri remained tight-lipped about the incident.
