McLaren CEO Zak Brown insists Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri will not fall out despite battling each other for the World Drivers’ Championship. Title battles between team-mates have often caused major rifts, but McLaren are hopeful that will not happen between their drivers.

Oscar Piastri denied that there has been a "trend" behind the inroads that McLaren team-mate Lando Norris has made on

Norris opted for a Hail Mary one-stop strategy when race engineer Will Joseph floated the idea mid-race. As the final laps unfolded, he had older tires and was racing in dirty air as they caught up to traffic with no DRS assistance. Piastri was quickly narrowing the gap, getting it within eight-tenths of a second with five laps to go.
