Oscar Piastri Factor in Norris’ Potential McLaren Exit

1 years ago By Sports Desk

Formula 1 expert Peter Windsor has sparked a wave of speculation by suggesting that McLaren standout Lando Norris should consider a possible move to Audi when the German team enters the Formula 1 grid in 2026. Norris, central figure In McLaren’s recent successes, he faces the rise of his teammate, Oscar Piastri, raising speculation about possible tension within the team.

Windsor, in a live broadcast on his YouTube channel, outlined his vision for the future: “I would love to see Lando in the Audi in 2026 with Théo Pourchaire in the other car, and I would like to see Liam Lawson in a Red Bull sooner rather than later .” The suggestion is fueled by the rise of Piastri, whose growing competitiveness against Norris could create internal friction.

Norris’ contract with McLaren ends in 2025, while Piastri is committed to the team until the end of the 2026 F1 season. The dynamic between the two drivers could become more evident, potentially affecting McLaren’s performance. As the team progresses, aiming for victories, having two young drivers so equally competitive can present challenges.

The intriguing question arises: would Norris consider the prospect of joining Audi in 2026? Windsor emphasized the appeal of Audi’s offering: “Number one driver, ’26 onwards, Audi factory team, it might not be brilliant [in] ’26, but we know what we’re doing. We’ve already done a huge amount of electrification. “

However, the decision is not a simple one, considering the investments made by McLaren’s Zak Brown in nurturing Norris’ career. Windsor recognizes the possible dilemma: “Will he [Brown] want him out?”

Norris and Piastri have demonstrated exceptional performances, and as McLaren evolves, the rivalry between them could intensify. The team’s ambition to compete for victories may force a reassessment in the choice of its drivers. Whether Norris will follow Windsor’s advice or remain loyal to McLaren remains uncertain. Motorsport enthusiasts eagerly await how this intriguing plot will unfold in the coming seasons.
