Breaking:Lando Norris Fans Flood McLaren with Complaints over Driver Treatment…read more
Lando Norris fans’ voice growing frustration as Oscar Piastri’s rise sparks debate over McLaren’s championship priorities in the 2025 F1 season.

McLaren is facing a wave of criticism from passionate Lando Norris fans, who have taken to email and social media to protest what they see as unfair treatment of the British driver.
With McLaren emerging as the team to beat in the 2025 Formula 1 season, the spotlight has intensified on both of their talented drivers—Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. However, recent team dynamics and performances have stirred controversy among fans, particularly those devoted to Norris.
The British team made a triumphant comeback to the top of the sport last season, clinching their first Constructors’ Championship in over two decades and fending off a resurgent Ferrari. Norris secured a solid P2 in the Drivers’ Championship, marking the best season of his F1 career so far. But in 2025, the balance of power within McLaren appears to be shifting.
Oscar Piastri, the young Australian sensation, has been making headlines with a string of dominant performances. After claiming victory at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, he not only matched Norris in career grand prix wins but also surpassed him in the drivers’ standings. Piastri has since gone on to win three consecutive races—an elite feat previously achieved by F1 legends like Ayrton Senna, Mika Hakkinen, and Alain Prost in McLaren colors.
With the championship heating up as the paddock heads to Imola for the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix, fans are demanding clarity on McLaren’s championship strategy. Should they throw their support behind the in-form Piastri or remain loyal to Norris, the driver long considered their lead contender?
Lando Norris entered the 2024 season with immense hype as McLaren’s best hope of ending Red Bull and Max Verstappen’s recent dominance. While the team has clearly made huge strides in performance, Norris’s own title bid seems to have been overshadowed by his teammate’s rise. Although still firmly in the title picture, Norris has found himself in a tighter battle than expected—fighting not just Verstappen and Leclerc, but also his own teammate.
The situation has sparked a reaction from Norris’s global fanbase. Disappointed by what they perceive as unequal treatment, many have taken action by emailing the McLaren team directly. Screenshots of some of these emails have circulated on social media, with fans voicing their frustration at what they see as favoritism toward Piastri.
One passionate fan wrote, “As a long-time supporter of McLaren and an admirer of your legacy in motorsport, I feel compelled to express my profound disappointment and frustration regarding the recent treatment of Lando Norris, both internally and publicly.”
So far, McLaren has remained silent on the backlash, offering no official response to the growing unrest among fans. Internally, it’s likely that the team is fully focused on securing back-to-back Constructors’ Championships and supporting whichever driver can best deliver the Drivers’ title—whether that ends up being Norris or Piastri.
With the season still unfolding and plenty of points up for grabs, all eyes will be on how McLaren handles the rising tension between their two drivers and the expectations of a vocal fanbase eager to see Norris receive his due recognition.
