After their last-lap collision in the 2026 Singapore Sprint, Norris said in Austin that he and Piastri can still race each other but must avoid another clash.
Lando Norris says McLaren still allows him and Oscar Piastri to race each other, but that they must avoid another collision. Speaking at Thursday’s media day in Austin, Norris said he had received “plenty of telling-offs” and that plenty had been said.
The teammates collided on the final lap of the 2026 Singapore Sprint. Norris accepted responsibility for the incident, although the stewards classified it as a racing incident. He also pointed to their Turn 1 collision in the 2025 Austin Sprint as something that must not happen again.
