Nico Rosberg insists that McLaren’s decision to let their drivers race is “hurting” 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris.

But he insisted t🐲hat Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc’s win at the F1 Italian Grand Prix was not necessarily caused by the decision from McLaren bosses.

Norris started on pole position but was overtaken on the first lap by teammate Oscar Piastri, putting him on the back foot. He ultimately never🐼 recovered, and missed the chance to land a major blow on Max Verstappen in the drivers’ championship.

Ex-F1 champion Rosberg analyse⛦d McLaren’s policy of not prioritising either driver for Sky Sports.

“Papaya rules are race, 🌃b𓂃ut race fairly,” Rosberg said.

“We hear that Lando thought Oscar went over the limit in the ba𝄹ttle🍬 at Turn 4. I didn’t really he didn’t think it was fair and square.

“There will be heateཧd discussions in the McLaren motorhome.

“It is very difficult to manage. It’s a fine line. You w𝕴rite those rules down but did Oscar go over the limit, in terms of the Papaya rules?

“I say that Oscar did a great 🅘job. He left the space and did a fantastic job.”

McLaren team principal🍒 Andrea Ste🌺lla worked at Ferrari when Michael Schumacher was the undisputed No1.

But he is not behin💦d McLaren’s interesting philosophy to treat both drivers equally, Rosberg claims.

“Such a philosophy is 🌱dictated by the very top. It comes from Zak 𒅌Brown,” he said.

“We have two No 1 drive🌱rs because that is the essence of McLaren which goes back a long time. Andrea is executing that plan.

“They didn’t think they were🙈 com💎promising a win until the very end.

“They let their drivers race which was fun and exciting. At the end, Ferrari rolled the dice and caught them out with𒐪🉐 their strategy.

“It’s a question, with Lando, and the driv🎀ers’ championship. But they have decided that they want to keep going wi✨th both as No 1 drivers, and not give Lando the preference. Okay that’s the decision they take. But it’s definitely hurting Lando.”

Are McLaren risk averse?

Norris is 62 points behind Verstappen, who leads the drivers’ standings despite a pe🌜riod of terrible form.

Karun Chandhok said: “If they want to ta𝓀ke on the drivers’ championship battle, they need to give Land𝄹o every point.

“On the flip side, they’ve let them race whic꧟h will be good for Oscar. He drove a fantastic race and was the fastest McLaren today.

🌠“Long-term you are better having Oscar onside, as well.”

Rosberg added: “Lando𝓀 is on a roll. He’s driving well. His confidenc♛e has been on a high.

♋ꦚ“It is motivating that he smells ‘I have a chance’. He is still the underdog.

“Forཧ🤡 Lando, it was a mistake in Turn 4. He was on the inside, he had control of the situation. He was too conservative.”

Are McLaren too hesitant at taking risks?

Rosberg answered: “Too risk averse? It’s difficult to say. Tಞoday they were caught out by su🗹rprise. You could not have predicted that Ferrari would have made it work. I wouldn’t say it, on today.

“Risk averse? They let their drivers fight like crazy! They went wheel to wheel and Lando almost spun out in the battle with ♍Oscar.”

Rosberg insisted that the battle between the McLarens on Lap 1 did not cost t🥂hem race victory.

“Not necessarily. Oscar drove a f𒀰antastic race. They did the best that they could today with that car,” he said.
