Martin Brundle offers F1 virtual safety car solution after Lando Norris ‘robbery’ at Spanish GP

Lando Norris was denied victory at the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix after a virtual safety car (VSC) was deployed seconds after he passed the pit lane entry, meaning he was unable to benefit from a slow-zone pit stop unlike rivals Andrea Kimi Antonelli and Max Verstappen. Norris ultimately finished third after rejoining in fifth, with the incident sparking debate about F1's VSC regulations. Sky Sports commentator Martin Brundle has since proposed a potential rule change to prevent similar outcomes in the future.
