Former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone believes McLaren “prefers” Lando Norris to win the F1 world championship over Oscar Piastri after the pit-stop controversy at the end of the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday.
Piastri and Norris are embroiled in an intra-team title battle this year as both drivers eye their first world title. In Monza, a slow pit-stop for Norris, originally in second place ahead of Piastri, meant he re-entered the race behind the Australian with a handful of laps remaining.
