Piastri echoes Verstappen’s thoughts over ‘tough’ Qatar
Australian driver Oscar Piastri expressed that the Qatar Grand Prix was the most challenging race he has experienced in his racing career due to the intense heat inside the cockpit. Many drivers struggled with the high temperatures and some even had to open their visors for ventilation. Logan Sargeant from Williams retired from the race due to the difficulties he faced behind the wheel. Piastri, who started from sixth place, managed to finish in second position thanks to some chaotic moments at the opening corner. Despite the challenges, Piastri was very happy with his performance and described the race as the hardest he has ever had. The race also featured shorter stints and a minimum of three pit stops, which made it physically demanding for the drivers. Piastri was pleased that the tires held up well and he was able to secure another trophy.
