Stella asks FIA for change to avoid repeat of vicious 2021 battles

McLaren boss Andrea Stella believes that Sunday's fierce battle between Lando Norris and Max Verstappen was reminiscent of the controversial 2021 season. In the last year before the ground effect regulations came into play, Red Bull and Mercedes battled viciously for wins over the course of a record 22 Grand Prix at the time. In 2024, Stella believes that Formula 1's governing body, the FIA, must reflect on Norris and Verstappen's controversial clash to ensure that the 2021 season doesn't repeat itself.
