Norris doesn't understand anything about the stewards: 'Why doesn't Verstappen get a penalty?'

"They (the stewards) obviously can't make their minds up for a few laps, so it's obviously not an easy decision, otherwise it would have come a bit sooner. I tried. He (Max Verstappen) also went off the track, so if he goes off the track, clearly he's gone in way too hard and also gained an advantage by doing what he did. , but I don't make the rules," Norris stated to Sky Sports after the race.

Norris not happy with the stewards

About the moment on the first lap, Norris said: "I need to go look at it again. I was pretty tight. Obviously, Max went for a tight gap. From inside the car, it's obviously hard to say some things, also easier to say some things. He obviously committed quite a bit, which is he's got the right to do. But again, he went completely off the track, so I don't know. I need to look back at it. At the same point, he's overtaken by going off track. So I don't know what I'm going to do. He defends by going off track. He overtakes by going off track. But I'm not going to complain about it. I think Max drove well. He defended well. We had a good race together. But the rules are the rules."

Max Verstappen himself was unaware of any wrongdoing. After the race, he stated that it was a tough fight with Norris, but that he was happy to be on the podium. As a result, Verstappen again dropped further out in the championship relative to Norris.
