Poll: Was McLaren right to impose Hungarian GP team orders?

It was a drama-filled Hungarian Grand Prix, and despite securing an impressive one-two finish, McLaren is harbouring its fair share of controversy after the weekend in Budapest.

Lando Norris ultimately let team-mate Oscar Piastri by for the Australian's maiden grand prix win at the Hungaroring, but it looked for a little while like he would defy team orders and take victory for himself.

That led to a nerve-racking few laps on the McLaren pit wall, with a spirited exchange between Norris and his race engineer, Will Joseph.

Piastri had taken the lead at the start of the race, having lined up alongside pole-sitter Norris. He had grown a healthy advantage when the team opted to stop the British driver before him - going against the usual convention of pitting the leading driver first in order to cover off stops from those behind.

This allowed the Briton to undercut his team-mate, with McLaren re-assuring Piastri that all would be put right later in the race.

Once Piastri emerged from the pits behind Norris, the drama ensued. It's well-trodden ground at this stage, and opinions are divided already, but do you think McLaren were right to impose team orders?
