Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri came to blows on the opening lap of the Singapore Grand Prix amid their fight for the F1 drivers' title, leaving the latter annoyed with his team-mate's driving.
Starting from fifth on the grid, Norris made a strong start and quickly advanced past Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli into the first corner.
He then drew alongside Piastri into Turn 3 and made slight contact with Max Verstappen ahead, which pitched him into Piastri and dealt slight damage to his front wing.
The stewards looked at the incident and opted to take no further action.
After McLaren conducted its own review and opted not to intervene, Piastri voiced his annoyance over team radio.
Tom Stallard, Piastri's race engineer, told the Australian: “As a team, we see Lando had to avoid Verstappen, so we won't take any action during the race. We can review further afterwards.
Piastri replied: “Mate, that's not fair, that's not fair.
TS: “We'll have the opportunity to review afterwards, just focus on the race.
OP: “If he has to avoid another car by crashing into his team-mate, then that's a pretty **** job of avoiding.”
