The WhatsApp group of F1 drivers has always been an intriguing aspect for fans. The secretive nature of the group, in addition to official matters, has captivated the interest of fans. As the 2024 F1 season approaches, the McLaren driver has decided to reveal a bit about the group.
Having joined the grid last year, the Australian driver became a member of the infamous WhatsApp group of F1 drivers. Speculations about the group’s activities have been a topic of discussion over the years.
However, Piastri’s revelation burst the fans’ bubble. In a recent lighthearted segment, he was asked about the WhatsApp group of F1 drivers, to which he responded by saying that becoming an F1 driver is the only way to have access to the group.
The McLaren driver’s response clearly indicates that the WhatsApp group of F1 drivers is not as exciting as fans may think. It also emphasizes that the group mainly focuses on serious official matters.
Although Oscar Piastri recently shared some secrets about the F1 drivers’ group, all eyes will be on him during the upcoming season. Despite some initial difficulties last year, Piastri had an exceptional performance and occasionally challenged the top drivers.
As a result, the McLaren F1 team and fans around the world will closely follow his performance in the MCL38. At just 22 years old, Piastri has shown immense talent and glimpses of his potential last year.
Although he scored 97 points compared to Norris’ 205, Piastri aims for a stronger campaign this year. Many see him as a future world champion, which will certainly generate significant interest in him throughout the record-breaking 24-race F1 calendar.
