I Did The Correct Thing: Norris Defends His Penalty Move On Verstappen
United States Grand Prix: McLaren's Lando Norris believes he did the right thing by not giving the position back to title-rival Max Verstappen for leaving the track and gaining an advantage in the United States Grand Prix on Sunday.
The move handed a five-second time penalty to Norris which dropped him to fourth place after finishing third with the gap back to Verstappen standing at four seconds.
"I mean clearly I didn’t give the position back because we thought we were in the right – clearly we weren’t. I still think we were, considering Max went off the track – normally if you defend your position and you go off the track, you have to give the position up. In that case I was ahead, I kept my position because he needed to give it back, and that’s the way it is," Norris explained.
