F1 warned Lando Norris booing could “lead to something nasty”
Former F1 team manager Peter Windsor has expressed concern over the ongoing booing of Lando Norris, warning that it could escalate into something negative and urging Liberty Media to intervene. Despite facing backlash, Norris has clinched consecutive F1 victories, propelling him to the top of the championship standings. Following his dominant win at the Mexico City Grand Prix, Norris was met with boos on the podium, attributed to allegations of McLaren favoritism at the Italian Grand Prix. Windsor emphasized the need for Liberty Media to address the issue promptly to prevent further escalation and maintain sportsmanship among drivers and fans. As Norris aims to secure McLaren’s first championship since Lewis Hamilton in 2008, the persistent booing highlights a concerning trend in the sport that Windsor believes requires immediate action.
