SAKHIR, Bahrain (Reuters) -Formula One leader Lando Norris was unsparingly self-critical after suffering setbacks in Bahrain at the weekend but McLaren principal Andrea Stella said the driver was being unfair on himself and taking blame for the team.
Norris said he had been "clueless on track" after Saturday qualifying at Sakhir and, after finishing third on Sunday in a race won from pole by teammate Oscar Piastri, that he made too many mistakes.
