Oscar Piastri FUMES in scathing post-race interview at British GP
Oscar Piastri, the McLaren F1 star, was furious after the British Grand Prix ended, as his championship lead shrank to just eight points. He led most of the race but received a 10-second penalty for an infringement causing Max Verstappen to pass him under safety car conditions. Piastri, though on the podium, seemed downbeat, commenting on his penalty and congratulating Nico for his performance. This incident exposed cracks in Piastri’s usually calm demeanor and McLaren may face challenges managing their two drivers in the upcoming races, given Norris’s recent wins. Despite the setback, Piastri retains an eight-point lead over Norris in the championship standings, a far cry from his 22-point lead just two races ago.
