Lando Norris’ frank admission after delayed Belgian GP
- Oscar Piastri secured victory at the rain-affected Belgian Grand Prix, extending his championship lead over McLaren team-mate Lando Norris.
- The start of the 13th round at Spa-Francorchamps was delayed by 80 minutes due to heavy rain and poor visibility.
- Piastri overtook pole-sitter Norris on the first racing lap with a committed move through Eau Rouge and up the Kemmel Straight.
- Norris admitted Piastri showed more commitment and deserved the win, acknowledging his own 'scrappy exit' from the opening corner.
- Race officials exercised caution due to the track's history of fatalities, including Dutch 18-year-old Dilano Van 't Hoff in 2023.
