Newey claimed that it is likely that Max Verstappen and Lando Norris will have a chat over the incident at Silverstone. Helmut Marko has previously confirmed that both drivers will discuss the incident.

Adrian Newey pointed out that this incident had made everyone fractious, be it the two drivers or their respective teams. However, the 65-year-old claimed that it was just one of those things when it was difficult to allocate the blame. However, Newey was optimistic that both Verstappen and Norris would be fine.
It's one of those where everyone is getting a little bit fractious but not to allocate blame at all, it's just one of those things. They're both great drivers, they'll be fine.Adrian Newey explained
Certainly, Max Verstappen and Lando Norris will need to go over some facts regarding the incident. It is likely that the two will move on and get back to normal as they continue to fight for wins. However, another such clash could deteriorate further.
