In a dramatic turn of events at the Japanese Grand Prix, Lando Norris has been handed an official verdict by the FIA, drawing attention across the Formula 1 world. Meanwhile, seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton was left visibly stunned after a challenging race that saw unexpected twists and tactical missteps.
Norris Cleared After Investigation
Lando Norris, who had a fierce on-track battle with both Ferrari and Mercedes drivers, came under investigation for an incident involving track limits and an aggressive overtake attempt on Carlos Sainz. However, after a detailed review, the FIA concluded that no further action was necessary, stating that Norris’ move was “firm but within acceptable racing standards.” The McLaren driver retains his P4 finish, narrowly missing out on a podium but showcasing strong pace throughout the weekend.
Hamilton’s Frustration Boils Over
Lewis Hamilton, on the other hand, endured a frustrating weekend in Suzuka. The Mercedes driver struggled with tire degradation and a lack of straight-line speed, leaving him unable to challenge the front-runners. Post-race, Hamilton was visibly disheartened, stating, “I gave everything, but the car just wasn’t there. I’m shocked at how far off we were.” The Brit finished a distant P7, behind his teammate George Russell.
Red Bull Dominance Continues
Max Verstappen once again led the field with a commanding drive from pole to victory, further extending his championship lead. His teammate Sergio Pérez made it a Red Bull 1-2, strengthening the team’s position at the top of the Constructors’ standings.
Tensions Rise as the Season Heats Up
With each race, the battle for second in the championship intensifies. McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes are locked in a tight midfield fight, and moments like Norris’ bold moves or Hamilton’s frustrations could prove pivotal.
As F1 heads to China next, all eyes will be on whether Mercedes can bounce back and if Norris can convert his pace into podiums—and possibly a win.
