Oscar Piastri has no qualms with his McLaren Formula 1 team’s choice to use team orders against him to allow
Piastri was running in fourth position behind his team-mate when Ferrari and McLaren decided to cover Mercedes’ earlier pit stop for George Russell on Lap 9. McLaren called in Piastri instead of the lead driver and he undercut Norris when the Briton pitted four laps later. However, Piastri was ordered to let Norris pass halfway through the race, as Norris was faster on fresher rubber. Although Piastri wished for a podium at his home race, he acknowledged that it was fair to let Norris take advantage of his pace. Despite making some mistakes in qualifying and the race, Piastri was pleased with McLaren’s performance and was surprised by Sergio Perez’s lack of pace during the race.
