Formula 1: Azerbaijan GP Will Go Down As ‘one Of The Better Races Of My Career’, Says Oscar Piastri
Azerbaijan Grand Prix: The 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix was full of chaotic moments but after hanging on for nearly 30 laps, it was Oscar Piastri who pipped Charles Leclerc to win the race. The Australian deemed it to be ‘one of the better races’ of his career.
“I went for a pretty big lunge and managed to pull it off and hang on for dear life for the next 35 laps. The last couple of laps when Leclerc dropped out of DRS were a little bit more relaxing but there’s no such thing as a relaxing lap around here so it was hard work. I think that definitely goes down as one of the better races of my career,” said Piastri in the post-race interview.
Oscar Piastri’s win was McLaren’s first win at the Baku City Circuit and took them past Red Bull in the race for the Constructors Championship. The British car manufacturer now sits 20 points ahead of Red Bull, with 476 points, and hopes to end their reign which has seen them win the trophy for the past two seasons.
