‘It was wrong of me’ - Norris apologizes to Colapinto over race ban call

Lando Norris has publicly apologised to Franco Colapinto for suggesting that Colapinto should be banned following a crash during the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. The incident occurred when Colapinto missed his braking point on a safety car restart, resulting in a collision that took out both Norris and his teammate Pierre Gasly, leading to their retirements from the race.

After the race, Norris expressed his frustration and called for a ban, but later recognised that his comments were inappropriate. He reached out to Colapinto to apologise, stating that emotions were high but that he should have known better. Both drivers have since reconciled and are looking forward to the upcoming race in Malaysia.
