Yeah, he gambled yesterday, but he had such a good shot that it was worth it. There's no shame in making a mistake when you're right on the ragged edge. I can't wait for Piastri to catch up to his level. Mclaren played a blinder sneaking Pia away from Alpine and keeping Norris as their more experienced driver this season.

Piastri has a huge potential. I’ve seen Stella say that he reminds him of Alonso. And we should remember that it’s his rookie year. That pair could become a huge one.

No doubt we have one of the most interesting and talented driver generation in a long time. Let’s hope cars are closer next year and we can enjoy these drivers more.
