Lando Norris was self-critical once again after the Belgian Grand Prix after making a mistake on the opening lap of the race.
Former Formula 1 driver Martin Brundle pointed out that negotiations around team orders at McLaren in Budapest may have affected Lando Norris’ performance at the Belgian Grand Prix. Norris struggled at Spa-Francorchamps, finishing fifth while his teammate Oscar Piastri secured a podium. The race came just a week after Piastri’s first Grand Prix win in Hungary, where Norris had to concede his position after a team debate. Despite his concerns, Norris aims to “reset” during the summer break. Brundle speculated that the events in Budapest might have still been on Norris’ mind at Spa, where he showed signs of unhappiness. Norris currently sits second in the driver’s championship, trailing leader Max Verstappen by 78 points.
