Formula 1: McLaren Want 'Norris-Piastri To Race With Freedom' Despite Canada GP Collision
Canadian Grand Prix: McLaren will continue to allow Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri to race freely despite their late-race collision at the Canadian Grand Prix, with team principal Andrea Stella making it clear that the team’s core philosophy of driver independence remains intact.
The incident occurred as Norris clipped the back of Piastri’s car during a DRS-fuelled battle for fourth place, prompting concern over whether McLaren would tighten team orders. But the team has firmly backed its drivers to continue racing on merit, albeit with more caution.
"The being free to race and the being clear as to how we go racing is a value of racing," Stella was quoted by Sky Sports as saying. "We want to try and exercise and respect that value as much as we can, rather than every time that we have proximity between the two cars, having control from the pit wall."
