McLaren boss Zak Brown feels it is just a matter of time before his title-contending drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri crash.
McLaren CEO, Zak Brown, believes it is inevitable that Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri will eventually collide in a grand prix, stating it is a matter of “when and not if.” The two teammates, currently leading the championship race, are unlikely to collide in the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix due to their positions on the grid. McLaren has not faced a situation like this since Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in 1989, or two teammates colliding for the world championship since Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg in 2016. Despite the inevitability of a collision, Brown trusts it will be treated as a racing incident and does not suspect any deliberate sabotage between Norris and Piastri. He anticipates the event with an expectation of it being less dramatic than anticipated, given the professionalism and character of both drivers.
