Oscar Piastri expressed his joy over Lando Norris’ first-ever victory in the Miami Grand Prix, calling it a long-awaited achievement. Norris secured McLaren’s first win since the team’s double triumph at the 2021 Italian Grand Prix led by Daniel Ricciardo. Piastri had initially been ahead of Norris but fell behind Leclerc, Sainz, and Norris after his pit-stop. Norris gained the lead thanks to a mid-race safety car period and extended his lead over Max Verstappen. McLaren showed strong performance with a full upgrades package in Miami, leading to Piastri’s overall satisfaction with the team’s progress. Despite finishing in 13th place due to damage from a collision with Sainz, Piastri remained positive about their trajectory and Lando’s well-deserved victory.
