Lando Norris retained his Sprint pole following a quick u-turn by the Chinese GP stewards.
McLaren boss Andrea Stella explained the decision to reinstate Lando Norris’ Chinese Grand Prix Sprint pole position, citing track limit issues. Norris had set a quick lap time but had it deleted for exceeding track limits. Lewis Hamilton initially benefited, but Norris reclaimed pole. Track limits at Turn 16 were closely monitored, with a gravel trap now in place. Stella suggested Norris lost time due to a slower exit, hence the reinstatement. The FIA reinstated the pole, ensuring Norris received the deserved recognition.
