Sergio Pérez and Lando Norris escaped a heavy crash during the Dutch Grand Prix. Where the Mexican decided to overtake his competitor, Norris pushed him to the outside of the track. It caused a lot of commotion afterwards.
The Red Bull Racing driver finished in eighth place but had the feeling he could drive towards sixth position. The incident with Norris prevented him from doing so and Pérez had to settle for fewer points in the world championship.

Rosberg criticises Norris

Norris thought that he gave Pérez enough space and shouldn't give up just like that, which again caused criticism. "I don't really agree with Lando here, but he also doesn't see very well what happened in the car," Nico Rosberg told Sky Sports F1. "He definitely didn't give him enough space, that wasn't very fair of Lando."
Rosberg gave his support to Pérez. "Checo had the right to be there because at the start of the corner he was in the lead. Lando then pushed him to the edge and that could have ended in a big crash, that was on the edge and not really fair. So that wasn't so good."
