Just why was Lando Norris the recipient of booing despite a crushing performance in Mexico City?
After claiming pole position and winning the Mexico City Grand Prix, Lando Norris faced boos from some of the spectators, although he had not been involved in any incidents during the race and did not have any issues with Sergio Perez.
During the post-race press conference, it was revealed that the boos stemmed from a situation at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, where McLaren made a strategic decision that led to Norris briefly falling behind his teammate Oscar Piastri.
Piastri eventually relinquished the position, resulting in a swing of six championship points, without which he would have led the championship by five points.
Norris acknowledged the incident and compared it to a similar situation in Hungary 2024, where he had to give up a win to Piastri, emphasizing the importance of fair play in racing and respecting the deserved victories of fellow drivers.
