McLaren: Bump that caused Norris’ Las Vegas F1 crash should be taken out
On lap 3 of the race, Lando Norris lost control of his McLaren and spun into the outside wall due to a bump on the road. He was taken to the hospital for precautionary checks but was soon cleared and released. His team principal, Stella, believes the combination of the bump and cold tires caused the crash and recommends fixing the bump if racing continues at night. Stella also mentioned that multiple factors, such as speed, tire condition, and car position, made the corner tricky for drivers. Norris’ accident was not the only disappointment for McLaren, as Oscar Piastri had to make an extra pitstop due to contact with Lewis Hamilton, resulting in a puncture. Stella expressed disappointment but praised Piastri’s performance during the race.
