Oscar Piastri ‘laughed’ at ‘ludicrous’ Zak Brown McLaren claim
McLaren CEO Zak Brown revealed that F1 championship leader Oscar Piastri ‘laughed’ at a recent claim made about him. McLaren Racing sought around $20 million from IndyCar star Alex Palou in a case running until next month due to his contract breach. Palou claimed Brown promised him an eventual move to McLaren’s F1 team which Brown rejects as ‘ludicrous’. While Piastri hasn’t publicly commented, Reuters reported that Piastri laughed at the idea Brown wouldn’t have a big say in any hiring decisions. The intense legal battle has sparked controversy within the Formula 1 community, with tensions running high between McLaren and Palou.
