McLaren CEO Zak Brown feels employing stewards on a full-time basis in Formula 1 will help simplify the 'overly complicated' rules.
Formula 1 needs to employ stewards on a full-time basis in order to simplify the rules of the sport, says Zak Brown.
This season, McLaren's Lando Norris has been involved in back-to-back controversial track battles with Red Bull's Max Verstappen, with the pair being penalised for separate incidents at the United States and Mexico City Grands Prix. "The stewards we have right now, they are doing their very best to what they have but in a sport like this, like in other sports, when you have a paid board of stewards, it works way better.”for going off the track and gaining an advantage trying to overtake Verstappen. The Briton refused to give the place back after Verstappen complained, highlighting he had been ahead at the apex. The stewards, however, disagreed with Norris.
"I think we’re racing too much to a rulebook now versus good old fashioned racing - just give the stewards a little bit more discretion. They’ve raced, they know that a driver has been pushed off or not, or made a lunge, or not. And not have this black and white rulebook."
