Norris Rejects 'Easy Route' F1 Title via Team Orders

  • Lando Norris leads the F1 championship by 12 points over Max Verstappen and 16 over teammate Oscar Piastri heading into the final race.
  • Norris stated he would "love" team orders to secure his maiden F1 title but won't ask for them, preferring to win on merit.
  • A potential scenario involves Piastri swapping positions with Norris if Verstappen leads, which could secure Norris the championship by two points.
  • Oscar Piastri has not discussed team orders, while Max Verstappen believes he would use them if in Norris's position.

Why It Matters: Norris's team order stance could determine the F1 championship winner.
