McLaren left the Austin collision without consequences.

      McLaren have decided to leave the collision between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris in the Saturday sprint of the United States Grand Prix without consequences.

      According to Daily Mail Sport, the team recently held an internal investigation involving team principal Andrea Stella and both drivers. As a result, it was decided not to escalate tensions within the team, not to impose sanctions on the drivers and to "start with a clean slate."

      With five Grands Prix remaining in the season, McLaren have decided to focus on trying to prevent Max Verstappen from pulling ahead in the drivers' championship.

      A source at McLaren told the publication: "There was a very constructive conversation within the team, at which it was decided that the best course of action would be to start with a clean slate. We have a common 'opponent', and stopping him is the main priority.

      Both drivers know the rules of racing. Those rules are not rigid and depend on the specific race situation. Both drivers are satisfied with the decision reached."
