2023 Fantasy Outlook

The Australian rookie Piastri has quite the shoes to fill in his first season with Formula One, taking former McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo's spot as Lando Norris' teammate for the 2023 campaign. Piastri was quite the phenom in his last season with Formula 2 in 2021, winning a total of six times, earning 252 points, and walking away with the Driver's Championship after just 23 starts in the series. The driver of the No. 81 will have a lot of eyes on his on-track performance this year, as McLaren is famous for their incoming drivers having issues sufficiently adapting to the feeling and handling of the car. In the upcoming season, Piastri's greatest challenge will be learning how to adjust his racing style to fit the capabilities of the MCL36 and where he fits amongst all the new talent on the grid this season.

Fast Second Practice

Formula One

March 6, 2026

Piastri finished the first day of running in Australia at the top of the timesheets, beating the Mercedes duo of Kimi Antonelli and George Russell in another eventful hour, Formula1.com reports.

ANALYSIS
In a second session that would include a number of incidents, including Max Verstappen going off through the gravel and damaging his floor, this practice would see a greater focus on mock qualifying runs. Lap times would tumble and Piastri would finally lay down the best marker of the weekend at 1:19.729. He would edge Antonelli by two-tenths to lead the way. Piastri is shaping up to be a podium challenger for Sunday's season-opener in Melbourne.
