FANS fear there’s an “underlying issue” between Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton after an uncomfortable exchange following the Hungarian GP.

Norris had earlier defied team order before eventually letting McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri pass for his first ever F1 win.

Some fans wondered if Lando Norris took Lewis Hamilton’s words the wrong way

Hamilton was third in his Mercedes, ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and fifth-placed World Championship leader Max Verstappen.

Norris’ performance tightened his grip on second spot in the title hunt.

But some viewers reckon he showed, in an awkward encounter with Hamilton, he was still disgruntled at missing out on victory.

The 24-year-old was told by the seven-time F1 king: “Phew! You guys are fast.”

Norris replied: “You had a fast car 7 years ago.”

Hamilton, 39, queried in turn: “Seven years ago? Long time. Were you here seven years ago?”

Norris responded: “You had a quick car, and now it’s us.”

A calm-sounding Hamilton appeared surprised by that comment and said: “I wasn’t complaining, I was complimenting your car.”
