Piastri is pretty damn boring

This is why I like him, I find it one of the funniest things to watch how flat and devoid of human emotion he is. Also fun making sure he doesn't exceed his regulation 2 mild smiles a year.

And also what makes it hard for me to buy he's so incensed and provoked to action that he would genuinely have a go at his team in such a public and erratic manner.

Is a seat about to become available at McLaren?

Oscar Piastri sets off F1 storm with bombshell Instagram post slamming his own team

The Aussie led the F1 drivers' standings for most of the season before an awful run of form saw him fall behind his teammate Lando Norris.

Where would Oscar go?

If they decide to dump him then maybe a straight swap for whoever they bring in if it is from another F1 Team. McLaren do have a couple of highly rated junior drivers in their stable that they are closely mentoring so they might promote one of them if Piastri gets the archer.

Oscar is a good driver. If he left McLaren I'm not sure he'll be as productive as he's been this year with the best car in the field

The F1 authorities are doing their best to hand the title to the Dutchman again: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/articles/cr7l5v2exv0o

@sparky McLaren have no one to blame but themselves. Skid block wear beyond limits is always a disqualification.

Lawson had a very good quali again, earning P6. He got into a tangle on turn 1 unfortunately, and that ruined his race. His starts need some work, sometimes his decison making isn't good. Once he can consistently start cleanly he will level up
