Lando Norris has labelled F1’s delta time rule in qualifying as “stupid” following a stewards’ investigation at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

Norris is under investigation by the stewards at Interlagos for “alleged failure to follow dance director's instructions”.

While the rule is in place, the stewards tend to not penalise the drivers as teams argue that they’re trying to get out of each other’s way and avoid impeding, rather than gaining an unfair advanytage. “Two cars came out of the pit lane at a similar time so one of them has to back off otherwise you’re going to race. It’s silly. One had to back off and I had to back off. This rule… yeah, it’s stupid in my eyes.”

Despite securing pole, Norris was downbeat given McLaren’s overall pace didn’t result in a strong result on Friday.
