Lando Norris has insisted that Oscar Piastri does not “owe me one” despite playing a role in his McLaren team-mate’s victory at last weekend’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix. And he confirmed that his contribution in holding up Sergio Perez in Baku did not fall under McLaren‘s so-called ‘papaya rules’ system.

Oscar Piastri says McLaren are ready to use him to help Lando Norris’ championship bid if the circumstances arise at the Singapore Grand Prix.

With a superb run of results coming from Oscar Piastri recently, he has closed the gap to both Max Verstappen and teammate Lando Norris in the drivers' championship standings. But does the Australian think that he has the chance to take the title?
