Lando Norris had a tough time as he took to the podium
The decision to boo him has split social media and left many scratching their heads

Grumbling on his team radio: “A slow pit stop is part of racing.
“I don’t really get what has changed here but I will do it.”
Piastri eventually finished in third ahead of fourth place and fifth place George Russell while Max Verstappen won the race.
Fans were left scratching their heads on social media over the boos, with one writing on X: “Why? The team f***ed him.”
Another added: “It was not his mistake.”
Then another said: “He deserves it.”
Another one followed: “Yea I think that’s fair. He didn’t deserve that position.”
While one supporter pointed out: “Boo the team, not the driver.”
