Ralf Schumacher Rebukes Mark Webber in Tense McLaren Title Fight

He argues Piastri’s manager must publicly counter rumors to protect fairness toward Norris.

Overview

  • Ralf Schumacher criticizes Mark Webber for failing to denounce jeers at Lando Norris and for not distancing himself from conspiracy theories about McLaren’s preferences.
  • In a new interview, Webber praises Oscar Piastri’s qualities and details his support on travel, media handling, race preparation and time management.
  • Webber declines to discuss parallels to his own 2010 title duel at Red Bull, a stance Schumacher links to unresolved experiences from that season.
  • The McLaren rivalry has tightened the championship picture after a first‑corner collision in the Texas sprint eliminated both drivers and Max Verstappen won to close in.
  • With three Grands Prix plus a sprint remaining, Norris leads Piastri by 24 points as outside criticism focuses on McLaren’s public messaging and team harmony.
