Strap yourself in for a great Australian Formula One Grand Prix this
Sunday with our own Melbourne born driver Oscar Piastri well positioned
for the first Grand Prix of the year. The 23-year-old driving for McLaren
finished fourth in the driver’s standings last season with the first two
Grand Prix wins of his career, in Hungary and Azerbaijan, and with
teammate Lando Norris combined to see McLaren win the 2024 Formula
One Constructors Championship. Earlier this week McLaren extended the
young Melbournian’s contract with a multi-year deal, team CEO Zak Brown
commenting that “not only is he an incredibly talented driver but his work
ethic and cultural fit within the team made it a no brainer to extend his time
with the team.” Pre-season testing has also shown the McLaren MCL39
producing the fastest race pace to be a firm favourite for Sunday’s 58-lap
race at Albert Park. I’m David Berthon
