Race winner in his first year and before his own teammate who has been in F1 for years. Piastri will definitely become a world champion if he has a competent car.

A sprint win is not the same as a race win though.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

True, but it's the same opponents you have to beat in both cases.

In a lot less time though, if this race would have had 40 more laps like the real race then Max would’ve likely won again considering he was second from sixth on lap 19

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

True! However still more wins (either sprint or race) than Norris.

I'd say it's a race win even if it's not a grand prix win

Let’s hope McLaren can built on this year and not have a start like this year.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Oh Alpine, what must that feel like.

What a ridiculously fun race. Some good battles on track in all parts of the field. Great job by Piastri, hopefully tomorrow's race will be just as good.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Indeed! Even though Max dominated the season, this is probably one of the better seasons in years. We've had great races (including this one), the field (except for Max) is tight and a lot of on track action. For once: #blessed

Amazing rebound for McLaren, really thought their season was a write off but it looks like they have something to cook with. Aston definitely need Stroll to step up now.

Oscar is a future World Champion.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

Great to see. This lad is going places.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Let's go, McLaren! Great to see them fighting for podium positions after a tough start of the season. Looking forward to a great battle in the GP.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Not an ideal first win with it being a sprint and Max's clinch of the season, all the same, great to see for piastri and team McLaren.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Bet he still regrets signing for McLaren
