Stella hails ‘special day’ for Norris but dubs Piastri penalty ‘harsh’

McLaren celebrated a bittersweet 1-2 finish at the British Grand Prix, extending their championship lead to 238 points. Lando Norris secured a jubilant home victory, but the triumph was tempered by frustration for Oscar Piastri. Piastri, who led much of the race, was controversially handed a 10-second penalty for "erratic" braking behind the Safety Car, ultimately costing him the win. Team Principal Andrea Stella called the penalty "harsh," a sentiment echoed by CEO Zak Brown, who praised Piastri's "unbelievable race." Despite the disappointment for Piastri, both team leaders expressed immense pride in the drivers' performance, anticipating an "epic battle" as Norris now closes to within eight points of Piastri's championship lead.
