We asked F1 fans for their verdict on the Lando Norris-Max Verstappen incident in the United States Grand Prix, and it was a close outcome.
A narrow plurality of F1 fans believe Lando Norris was wrongly punished in the controversial United States Grand Prix battle with Max Verstappen, as he attempted to pass Verstappen on Lap 52. Norris re-joined ahead of Verstappen after being run off the road, but was given a five-second penalty for “leaving the track and gaining an advantage.” In a poll conducted by RacingNews365, 48.11% of fans felt Norris should have kept his third place, while 47.13% agreed with the penalty. The remaining 4.76% were undecided, with a close vote split. While some fans argued Norris should have given the position back, others felt Verstappen had no intention of making the corner, leading to varied opinions on the incident. The controversy sparked a debate among fans regarding race penalties and driver intentions in such situations.
