I don't think it made much if any difference. Same as Leclerc blaming hadjar in canada this year. Was there aero interference...maybe. Could Norris have driven faster...absolutely. But a nothing moment really.
As Davidson said on SKY - Lando had no reason nor was he required to move. Certainly Max knows that and would do the same. Its nothing.
Actuallu Lewis was overall faster than Charles. Would have qualified further up on the grid if he had a new set of soft tires for his final run in Q3. Charles was on brand new set and Lewis still managed to beat him.
No the team would provide the same defense. Its on video and you state your case. Then they rule. This is not new. Some you win some you lose.

Even when he praises Max he appears to be moaning. Mick had one of if not the greatest driver of all time as a dad and where is he? Not even a team with no F1 cars (cadillac) wants him. Racing driver dad doesn't guarantee excellence...
--On average the two papaya clad cars shipped around four tenths to Russell and two tenths to Verstappen. This is the same circuit on which Norris and McLaren defeated Verstappen last year by 21 seconds, which begs the question whether McLaren's third consecutive weekend off the front is still track specific or the start of a worrying trend. A bit of both, is team principal Andrea Stella's verdict: "We seem to observe a pattern. When we have braking with bumps and with kerbs, in Canada we were not the best car. In Baku we were not the best car. And in Singapore we are not the best car. "This is not an entire surprise because we know in which conditions we develop our car. In general we gain time mid-corner, but every mid-corner [on these circuits] is kind of too short. "Here it's dominated by braking and traction, and with bumps and kerbs we just seem to be suffering a bit. So throughout the event we saw that Mercedes were in condition to put together some very competitive sectors. Max, the same. And our drivers were making comments which resembled the comments of Baku and Canada. So it's a regime in which simply we are not the most competitive."--
