Coulthard questions Norris' podium champagne stunt after Interlagos win
Lando Norris secured a commanding victory at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, navigating shifting conditions and a late rain shower at Interlagos. David Coulthard praised the drive as one of the McLaren driver's best, describing it as world-class given the changing track.
After the race, Norris again smashed a champagne bottle against the podium floor, sending glass flying. It echoed an incident at Monza in 2020, when he cut his hand. Coulthard said Norris escaped serious injury this time but was lucky, and argued the FIA should review the podium setup to protect drivers from flying debris.
Coulthard also highlighted Max Verstappen's second-place finish, coming from the back in a car he was far from happy with, which he described as remarkable.
