Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris have been warned not to follow the same road as Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
McLaren rivals Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris have been warned against using “psychological games” in their title race, as it could diminish their image. Piastri currently leads the standings by nine points, setting the stage for a heated battle with Norris at the upcoming Dutch Grand Prix. The last prominent intra-team rivalry for the world title was seen between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg from 2014-2016, with both drivers resorting to psychological tactics. However, former F1 driver Perry McCarthy believes that employing such strategies would be counterproductive and unbecoming of Piastri and Norris. McCarthy emphasized the importance of focusing on performance and racing prowess rather than attempting to undermine each other psychologically. Ultimately, he suggested that using such tactics could backfire and portray them in a negative light.
