Great race for him and McLaren.
Bad luck with the safety car timing for Piastri otherwise would have certainly been 3rd place for him.

Well deserved too - getting the jump on Max at the start of the race and fending off Lewis on a slower tire at the end can't have been easy even with the car's improved pace.
as he should be! sad piastri missed out on the podium but still, 4th for a rookie is incredible. can't wait to see what McLaren brings to the table in the rest of the season!
Driver of the day for sure. Especially after that class act defense against Lewis. Dude was flying on those hard tyres
Absolutely deserved. Great drives all weekend, great start, great Safety Car restart, and a great podium celebration.
Well deserved!
Well deserved. Very nice job from both McLaren boys, let's see what that can accomplish in the next races...
