#i’ve got complex thoughts on piastri and norris and mclaren

[p1-norris]

i’m so fascinated by the ‘piastri doesn’t have to publicly thank norris/he might have just done it privately’ thing bc like… no he doesn’t have to but you have to acknowledge that it’s not a good look to, on more than one occasion now, completely fail to acknowledge your teammate’s role in your win? piastri did fuck all in norris’ win at miami and lando still talked about how well piastri did and how unlucky he was afterwards - lando handed piastri his first win from six seconds up the road and saved his second when mclaren screwed up their strategy yesterday and he just… didn’t recognise either of those things afterwards?

like, maybe he did thank him privately. maybe he didn’t. we will never know. but as like a public perception thing, he doesn’t help himself come across as a good teammate or as a team player at any point
