McLaren F1 star Lando Norris has been hit with a deleted lap verdict shared by the FIA after his British Grand Prix victory at Silverstone. Norris stormed to victory at his home race, claiming his second consecutive race victory to close the gap in the standings to team-mate and championship rival Oscar Piastri to just eight points.

The lead car can dictate the pace of the restart, but Piastri was pinged by race stewards for "suddenly" braking. He received a 10-second time penalty, which he served during a pitstop. As a result, McLaren teammate Lando Norris took the race lead and went on to claim victory in his home Grand Prix.

The McLaren F1 team principal was very happy about the 1-2 finish at Silverstone, but suggest that the penalty on Piastri was "harsh."
