Could one Oscar Piastri mistake have swung the title momentum back in Lando Norris’s favour?
According to Nigel Mansell, Oscar Piastri’s mistake at the British Grand Prix has given Lando Norris the momentum to possibly win the drivers’ championship. Piastri’s error happened during a safety car restart at Silverstone, where he braked too forcefully in wet conditions, leading to a penalty and loss of position to Norris. Norris’s victory in that race narrowed Piastri’s lead in the standings to just eight points. Mansell believes Norris, who recently won back-to-back races in Austria and Britain, has a good chance of coming out on top in the title battle. Despite a close competition, Mansell thinks Norris currently holds the momentum, especially with McLaren providing top-notch equipment to both drivers.
