Lando Norris speaks out on Oscar Piastri collision myth

Lando Norris has once against spoken out on Oscar Piastri collision in Singapore GP.

The McLaren teammates had an incident during the race as Norris banged wheels at the start with Piastri after clipping the back of Max Verstappen.

After the incident, Piastri said over team radio: “That’s not fair, I’m sorry, that’s not fair."

Meanwhile, Norris, speaking on the BBC’s Chequered Flag podcast, said: “Alright, well, I need to look at it. I’ve not seen it on TV yet, so I need to go and look at things.

“Like, I don’t want to make contact with anyone, because there’s just as much chance I ruined my own race and put myself out,” Norris continued. “So yeah, you’re silly, if you think it’s an intentional thing, especially when it’s on my teammate. It’s the thing I want to avoid the most.

“But, and I try to, but when you’re debating whether even maybe you want to start on the intermediate [tyres], because there’s still a lot of wet patches… It’s racing, you know. I try and keep the car under control the best way possible.

“There was a big gap on the left, like, easily a car’s width, and I put myself there.

“So we’ll talk about it. There’s nothing else I think I should have done. Any driver on the grid would have done what I did. Of course, unfortunate, I don’t want those things to happen, but I think it was racing.

“And clearly, the FIA think that as well.”
