Oscar Piastri

Oscar Piastri criticized Lance Stroll's driving under blue flags during the Italian Grand Prix. As the race neared its end, Piastri, on fresher tyres, was closing in on race leader Charles Leclerc, aiming for victory.

Oscar Piastri's first Formula 1 win in the Hungary GP is even more impressive now that he's revealed he did it with a fractured rib.

McLaren is currently undergoing significant positive changes, and there are hopeful anticipations that the upward trend observed in 2023 will persist into 2024, possibly resulting in a more enduring and consistent rivalry with Red Bull.

Max Verstappen won the world title after finishing second to Oscar Piastri in the chaotic sprint round held on Saturday in Qatar. The 26-year-old Dutchman has finished his third title with six grand prix still to go, following in the footsteps of Sir Jackie Stewart and Ayrton Senna.

McLaren, a team that has won multiple Formula 1 championships in the past, has locked down its driver lineup through 2026 by extending the contract of Oscar Piastri, an Australian rookie. Last year, Britain's Lando Norris inked a contract until 2025, so McLaren can bank on them.

During the Belgian Grand Prix weekend, Alpine (previously Renault) surprised the Formula 1 paddock by announcing the departure of team principal Otmar Szafnauer and longtime sports director Alan Permane.

McLaren's weakness in Spa was due to the fact that the team had prioritised bringing the radical upgrade, even though doing so meant not having the optimal low-drag rear wing specification that would have been advantageous at the high-speed track.

Lewis Hamilton is pleased to see his former team, McLaren, back in the Formula One race wins. In the British Grand Prix on Sunday, the seven-time champion finished third behind McLaren driver Lando Norris.
