Lando Norris has the edge over Oscar Piastri but it was a rocky session for the championship leader.
Lando Norris led the first practice session for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, marred by a red flag incident and McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri’s troubles. The session was halted due to a loose piece of rubber on the track caused by Carlos Sainz’s car. Piastri faced a power unit issue but his team managed to fix it during the break. Despite hitting a wall, Piastri finished second after the incident, with Norris topping the timesheets. Interestingly, no driver that led first practice in previous years won the race.
