Lando Norris says business limits driver input on F1 rules

Lando Norris has explained why Formula 1 drivers lack greater influence over technical regulations despite widespread concerns about recent changes. The defending world champion stressed that commercial interests involving manufacturers and teams shape decisions more than driver preferences.

Speaking ahead of the Miami Grand Prix Norris told reporters that drivers want to provide honest input to improve racing for fans and themselves. He said the goal is to restore the flat-out style of competition that defined the sport rather than relying on battery levels and artificial overtaking aids.
