Australian racing sensation Oscar Piastri faced a turbulent weekend in Monaco, describing it as “messy” as his lead in the title race took a significant hit. The McLaren driver, who had been leading the pack, now finds himself with just a narrow three-point advantage after the Monaco Grand Prix.

Despite showing promising speed at the Circuit de Monaco, Piastri was unable to capitalize on his starting position of third on the grid. The victory by Lando Norris not only pushed Piastri down the standings but also highlighted the fierce competition in the Formula 1 drivers’ championship.

Reflecting on his performance, Piastri acknowledged the challenges he faced throughout the weekend, stating, “Practice was messy all the way through, and felt like I got into qualifying with not a lot of confidence with how the weekend was going.” While he fell short of claiming the top spot, Piastri expressed contentment with securing a spot on the podium in Monaco once again.

The weekend got off to a rough start for Piastri after a crash during the second practice session at Sainte Devote. However, he showcased resilience by bouncing back to secure a third-place start on the grid. Despite being unable to match the pace of Norris and Charles Leclerc during the race, Piastri recognized the significance of finishing on the podium.

Acknowledging the fine margins in Formula 1, Piastri emphasized the need for improvement, stating, “Exactly the margins are so fine. And like you said, if this is a bad weekend, then it’s not going too badly at all. So yeah, some things to work on.” Looking ahead, Piastri vowed to return stronger in the next race while congratulating Norris and Leclerc for their stellar performances in Monaco.
