I DIDN'T COMMIT AS MUCH AS OSCAR DID

Norris admits Piastri was the more daring in rain-hit event

- By Daniel Moxon

LANDO NORRIS admitted he was not committed enough as he lost the Belgian Grand Prix on the first racing lap of a rain-affected affair.

A downpour saw the Spa-Francorchamps race delayed by 90 minutes as officials deemed the conditions too treacherous.

Oscar Piastri reacted the sharpest when a rolling start got things going, pulling off the race-winning move on the same straight where he had lost the shorter Sprint to Max Verstappen a day earlier.

The Aussie learned his lesson and is now 16 points clear of McLaren teammate and title rival Norris.

“Oscar just did a good job, there is nothing more to say,’ said the 25-year-old Briton.
