Norris explains off-track moment behind Safety Car in Malaysia

Lando Norris finished in ninth place at the Bahrain Grand Prix after a dramatic off-track incident during a late Safety Car period. Initially starting from fifth, Norris struggled with tyre choices and was caught out when George Russell retired, leading to a chaotic situation on track that forced him into the gravel.

After the race, Norris acknowledged that his decision to start on medium tyres was incorrect and admitted to swearing during the incident. He received a reprimand from the stewards for driving erratically under Safety Car conditions. Despite the setback, his teammate Oscar Piastri managed to secure a sixth-place finish.
