McLaren F1 boss calls for FIA rule change after double disqualification
McLaren F1 boss Andrea Stella has called for the FIA to review their rules following the disqualification of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at the Las Vegas Grand Prix for excessive skid wear.
The papaya driver duo lost their race result and championship points after an internal investigation highlighted a rule that Stella believes needs changing.
McLaren acknowledged the porpoising issue at the previous race, assuring that a repeat won’t happen in the final two events as Norris battles Piastri and Max Verstappen for the title in Lusail.
Stella emphasized the need for FIA to reassess penalties for skid wear violations, suggesting more proportionate consequences for minor breaches in the future.
