Lando Norris from McLaren plans to assess his defeat to Oscar Piastri at the 2025 Belgian Grand Prix, finishing 3.4 seconds behind, as reported by Formula 1. This loss widens his points gap to 16 in the drivers’ championship. Therefore, this article summarizes the reasons for his defeat and Norris’s next steps. Thus, the focus is on analyzing his performance at Spa.
The race started with an 80-minute delay due to wet weather, beginning with four laps behind the safety car. Meanwhile, Lando Norris lost the lead on the first racing lap when Oscar Piastri overtook him along the Kemmel Straight. Additionally, during the switch to slick tires, Piastri opted for the medium compound, while Norris chose the hard tire a lap later. Therefore, the anticipated tire degradation on the medium did not occur, hindering Norris’s chase. Thus, tire strategy proved decisive.
Norris committed three significant mistakes during the race. First, he ran wide at Pouhon on lap 26, losing 1.2 seconds. Meanwhile, on lap 34, he locked up at La Source, losing 0.7 seconds. Additionally, on lap 40, he failed to pass Isack Hadjar of Racing Bulls, costing another 0.8 seconds. Therefore, these minor errors proved costly. Nevertheless, Norris praised Piastri’s performance, acknowledging his deserved victory. Thus, he intends to focus on self-evaluation.
Norris will review his performance ahead of the next race in Budapest, scheduled for this weekend before the summer break. Meanwhile, he remains optimistic, citing positive memories from Hungaroring, where his Formula 1 career began. Additionally, the circuit suits his driving style. Therefore, he aims to reverse his fortunes. Thus, the Budapest race offers a key opportunity for McLaren.
Lando Norris will review his 3.4-second loss to Oscar Piastri at the 2025 Belgian GP. McLaren secured a one-two finish. For Formula 1 updates, visit SPORTRIK.
