Lando Norris's victory celebrations at the British Grand Prix were interrupted after he was accidentally struck in the face in the pit-lane. 

After defeating team-mate Oscar Piastri for the win following Piastri's 10-second time penalty for a safety car infringement, Norris has moved to within eight points of his team-mate after successive wins for the first time in his career.

It is Norris's fourth win of the season, but the celebrations were halted after he greeted fans in the pit-lane. 

A person lost their footing from the pit-wall, colliding with Norris, who immediately flinched in pain, and was escorted away. 

Fortunately, he appeared uninjured after the uncomfortable encounter, although he did appear on the FanZone stage after the race, sporting a new "scar."
