Racing Bulls Apologizes After Staffer Seen Urging Boos of Lando Norris

Calls for respectful fan conduct follow podium jeers as Norris leads the title race by 24 points with three rounds left.

Overview

  • A video from the São Paulo podium showed a Racing Bulls team member giving a thumbs-down toward booing fans before a colleague intervened.
  • Racing Bulls said the gesture did not reflect team values and confirmed the matter was handled internally, without detailing any disciplinary steps.
  • Norris was also booed during his Mexico City win, though the jeers in Brazil were less pronounced according to event coverage.
  • Sergio Pérez urged supporters to show respect for race winners, addressing the treatment of Norris after his recent victories.
  • Juan Pablo Montoya attributed the boos to a belief that McLaren favored Norris following team orders at Monza, a perception Norris has brushed off while extending his points lead.
