Lando Norris says he won't ask his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri to give up a place to favour him in the three-way F1 title fight including Red Bull's Max Verstappen at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Norris has a 12-point lead over Verstappen going into Sunday's race, with Piastri four points further back. If Verstappen is far ahead of both McLarens, it's possible Piastri could be in a situation where he can't take the title himself, but can aid Norris's title bid. If Verstappen wins on Sunday, a top-three finish would be enough for Norris to secure the championship. "I would love it, but I don't think I would ask it because it's up to Oscar if he would allow it," said Norris on Thursday.
