It finally happened.
The rising tension at McLaren boiled over in Canada â and now, theyâve been warned it could just be the beginning of a chaotic title fight.
đŻ Lando Norris sent his team-mate Oscar Piastri into the pit wall in a desperate lap-67 lunge, breaking the number one rule in F1: donât crash into your own car.
đ„ The incident wrecked Norrisâ race and his title momentum â dropping him 22 points behind Oscar in the standings.
F1 Academy champ Abbi Pulling didnât hold back, calling it:
âDesperation. He went for a gap that didnât really exist⊠not ideal.â
She added:
âMcLaren are lucky Oscar didnât come away with damage. This is going to get emotional.â
đ§ Credit where itâs due:
Lando did own up immediately â apologising on camera and to the team. Pulling praised his maturity, saying:
âNot many drivers take responsibility that quickly â fair play to him for that.â
But with both drivers chasing a world title, even Andrea Stellaâs cool-headed leadership might not be enough to keep things civil for long.
đ„ One thingâs clear:
This isnât just a team battle. Itâs personal now.
