Oscar Piastri started seventh but recovered to second in the 2024 F1 Austrian Grand Prix.
Oscar Piastri expressed disappointment after finishing second in the Austrian Grand Prix, feeling the sting of coming so close to his maiden victory. Starting seventh due to a penalty in qualifying, Piastri made a fantastic recovery, climbing to fifth and ultimately taking third after a collision between Verstappen and Norris. Despite a strong effort to catch the leader, George Russell, Piastri ran out of time and had to settle for second place. Looking ahead to the British Grand Prix, Piastri aims to build on his positive performance in Austria and hopes for another strong showing at Silverstone. “There are a lot of what ifs and maybes, obviously, starting from [Saturday],” Piastri reflects on missed opportunities but remains positive about his future prospects.
