‘It doesn’t make sense to me’ - Lando Norris confused by Canadian GP penalty
Norris crossed the line in ninth, just behind Alpine’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon, but dropped to 13th in the final ♕classification.
The young British driver picked up a penalty after the stewards found that he had dropped too far back when coming into the pit lane under the168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Safety Car.
Norris opened up a small gap to McLaren teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Oscar Piastri, who pitted in front of him, to reduce t💜he impact of double-stacking in t✤he pit lane.
Speaking about his 🌜penalty afterwards, Norris said: “Itꦍ doesn’t make sense to me.
“I was three or four seconds down… I’m quite surprised. 💎The rest of the race I 🐼was very happy with. There were some fun overtakes.
“Everyone leaves gaps [in safety c🍸ar period]. It’s not like I was 10 seconds down on my delta. If it’s a delta-difference, people should be given penalties for the last three or four years.”
Penalty aside, Norris drove a strong race, pulling off some impressive overtakes on Piastri and then 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valtteri Bottas into the hairpin.
He nearly got past Ocon on the final lap as well.
“It was always about making the most of one opportunity I 🧜had,” he added.
“It was a struggle, nothing was easy. Tough race, still managed to꧅ fight through which was nice.
“The pace was a bit betterꦗ than the last few weekends. Hopefully we can take some step fo𝔍rwards next time out.”
