Oscar Piastri holds a 22-point lead over Lando Norris with six grands prix remaining this season.
“1978 F1 champion Mario Andretti accused McLaren of favoring Lando Norris over Oscar Piastri.
Andretti’s remarks align with recent social media criticism of McLaren for showing preference towards Norris.
The controversy arose after an incident at the Singapore GP where Norris overtook Piastri and made contact with him.
Despite Piastri’s request for Norris to give back the position, both the stewards and McLaren chose not to intervene.
The situation has sparked speculation on how Piastri will handle the upcoming United States Grand Prix, given the perceived favoritism towards Norris at McLaren.
Andretti praised Piastri’s determination but suggested that McLaren’s favoritism towards Norris might impact the team dynamics moving forward.”
