Oscar Piastri praised Lando Norris for immediately apologizing after their clash in the Canadian Grand Prix, believing it won’t change the team’s approach. Norris attempted multiple moves on Piastri but couldn’t capitalize due to lack of DRS. After a final-lap incident where Norris tried to overtake, Piastri held his line, leading to contact. Piastri stated that open discussions are important for team harmony, and he appreciates Norris’ apology.
Piastri hopes McLaren won’t change its approach to allow both drivers to race freely and fight for the championship. He acknowledged his disappointment with his own performance in Montreal, where McLaren missed a podium for the first time in the season. Piastri emphasized the need for improvement going forward and the long road ahead in the championship battle with Norris.
