McLaren team principal Andrea Stella expressed no issues with Oscar Piastri’s request for team orders following his British Grand Prix penalty. Piastri’s bid to win at Silverstone was thwarted by a penalty for braking erratically behind the safety car, leading to teammate Lando Norris’ victory. Despite feeling the penalty was unfair, Piastri suggested swapping positions with Norris, but knew it was unlikely to happen. Stella commended Piastri for speaking his mind, as McLaren encourages drivers to communicate openly. The team explained their decision to maintain the race order after Piastri served his penalty, ensuring a fair outcome for both drivers.
