MONDAY MORNING DEBRIEF: Why did McLaren pit Norris before Piastri – and did they really need to?
Bringing Lando Norris in two laps before his race-leading team mate Oscar Piastri for their second pit stops created something of a drama for McLaren in Hungary.
Such is the high tyre degradation this track imposes, the earlier stop undercut Norris – who had been less than 2s behind – ahead. His new medium tyres were so much faster than the 27-lap old hard tyres on Piastri’s car.
