Oscar Jack Piastri (born 6 April 2001) is an Australian racing driver, who competes in Formula One for McLaren. Piastri has won two Formula One Grands Prix across two seasons.
Born and raised in Melbourne, Piastri began his career in radio-controlled racing before moving into karting aged nine. Graduating to junior formulae in 2016, Piastri won his first championship at the 2019 Formula Renault Eurocup with R-ace GP. He then won both the 2020 FIA Formula 3 and 2021 FIA Formula 2 Championships back-to-back with Prema, becoming the sixth driver in history to win the GP2/Formula 2 title in their rookie season. Piastri is the only driver in history to win Formula Renault, Formula Three and Formula Two—or equivalent—championships in successive seasons.
A member of the Alpine Academy from 2020 to 2021, Piastri signed with McLaren in 2023 to partner Lando Norris, following a contract dispute with Alpine. He made his Formula One debut at the Bahrain Grand Prix, achieving his first career podium in his rookie season at the Japanese Grand Prix. Retaining his seat for 2024, Piastri achieved his maiden victory in Hungary, becoming the fifth Australian driver to win a Formula One Grand Prix, and repeated this feat in Azerbaijan.
As of the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Piastri has achieved two race wins, three fastest laps and ten podiums in Formula One. Piastri is set to remain at McLaren until at least the end of the 2026 season. [1]
Oscar Jack Piastri was born on 6 April 2001 to Chris and Nicole (née MacFadyen) Piastri in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. He grew up in the inner-city suburb of Brighton with three younger sisters; Hattie, Edie and Mae. [3] He claims Italian, Yugoslavian and Chinese heritage from his father's side as well as Scottish and Irish heritage from his mother's side. [4] [5] He was privately educated at Haileybury College Melbourne and then Haileybury and Imperial Service College in England as a boarding pupil on a sports scholarship. [6] [7] [8] Chris Piastri served as his son's mechanic during Oscar's early racing years in Australia and is the founder and owner of HP Tuners, a vehicle diagnostics automotive software company. [9] He is a keen Richmond Tigers supporter. [10] As well as supporting Australia's national cricket team, he follows the Delhi Capitals in the IPL, after a post on his X profile asking for recommendations of which team to support. [11] As of July 2024 [update] , Piastri is dating Lily Zneimer, an engineering graduate whom he met whilst at boarding school. The pair began dating the year before Piastri graduated from boarding school in 2019. [12]
Piastri started racing remote-controlled cars at a national level before beginning his karting career in 2011. [13] [14] Having gone professional and competed in various Australian races and championships in 2014, [15] Piastri began competing in European and other CIK-FIA sanctioned karting championships with Ricky Flynn Motorsport the following year. He moved to the United Kingdom to further his racing career in 2016, finishing sixth in the 2016 World Championship in Bahrain. [16] [17] [18]
In early 2016, Piastri landed his first major sponsorship, HP Tuners (founded and owned by his father), which helped fund his racing career. This was displayed on his racing suit and car during the GP3 Series, F3 and F2 season. Later in 2016, Piastri made his single-seater debut in selected rounds of the Formula 4 UAE Championship with Dragon F4, claiming two podiums to take sixth in the championship. [19] In September 2022, Red Bull Racing principal Christian Horner revealed that he missed a chance to sign Piastri to their junior team during his Formula 4 years. [20] In 2017, Piastri was named as part of the TRS Arden Junior Racing Team's line-up for the British F4 championship. [21] There he claimed six wins and six pole positions to finish as runner-up to Jamie Caroline. [22] [23]
In 2018, Piastri made his debut in the championship, reuniting with Arden. [24] Claiming three podiums, with a highest placed finish of second at the second race at Hockenheim, he finished the season ninth in the championship. [25] In December 2018, it was announced Piastri would switch to reigning team champions R-ace GP for the 2019 championship. [26] He claimed his first victory in the series at Silverstone [27] and repeated with a second win at the same venue a day later. [28] He became the first driver to win three races in 2019 after taking victory at Spa-Francorchamps in July, [29] and became the champion after taking a win and fourth place at the final round at Yas Marina. [30]
In December 2018, Piastri took part in the GP3 Series post-season test at Yas Marina with Trident. [a] [31]
In October 2019, Piastri joined the post-season test with reigning FIA Formula 3 team champions Prema Racing. [32] In January 2020, the Italian outfit signed Piastri to contest the upcoming season, [33] alongside Logan Sargeant and 2019 Formula Regional European champion Frederik Vesti.
Piastri started third on the grid for his debut race at the Red Bull Ring. [34] He collided with pole-sitter Sebastián Fernández at the first corner but avoided damage and went on to take victory. [35] He then stated that "he thought [his] first Formula 3 race had ended in the first 10 seconds." [36] Piastri took three consecutive second-place finishes at both Hungaroring races [37] and the first Silverstone feature race, before his first retirement of the season came at the following Silverstone sprint race when a stuck-open DRS forced him to withdraw. [38] Teammate Sargeant took the lead of the championship from Piastri at the second Silverstone feature race after Piastri struggled with reliability issues in qualifying. [39] Piastri started fifth for the sprint race in Barcelona, but overtook multiple cars to take the lead before the end of the first lap. He held his position to take his second victory. [40] Piastri reclaimed the championship lead after finishing fifth at the following Spa-Francorchamps feature race, [41] but dropped back again after being penalised for an illegal overtake in the sprint race, which Sargeant won. [42]
Piastri was penalised in qualifying at Monza for impeding Jake Hughes and started the feature race in 15th place. [43] He charged to third place by the end of the race, benefiting from Sargeant being involved in a collision, to retake the championship lead. [44] Piastri retired from the sprint race after he was hit by Clément Novalak, but was also issued a five-place grid penalty for the next race for earlier forcing David Beckmann off the track. [45] Despite his retirement, Piastri maintained the lead of the championship after his teammates collided with each other. [46]
Piastri lined up 16th on the grid for the final feature race at the Mugello Circuit [47] and failed to score points after finishing 11th. [48] Title rival Sargeant finished sixth, leaving both drivers tied on 160 points going into the final race. [49] Sargeant started the sprint race six places ahead of Piastri, but was eliminated after a collision on the first lap. Piastri's only remaining title rival, Théo Pourchaire, was unable to bridge the points gap and Piastri finished seventh to claim the championship title, three points ahead of Pourchaire and four ahead of Sargeant. [50] [51]
In December 2020, Piastri announced that he would continue with Prema Racing into Formula 2, replacing the departing Mick Schumacher and partnering Ferrari Driver Academy member Robert Shwartzman for the 2021 season. [52] Piastri finished fifth in his debut race. In the second race, Piastri started from sixth and made up places before overtaking fellow Alpine junior Zhou Guanyu on the final lap to take the lead, claiming his first Formula 2 race win. [53] Piastri started the feature race from eighth place but passed multiple cars to take the lead by lap 13 of 32. He was later forced into retirement after making contact with Dan Ticktum and spinning with two laps remaining. [54] Piastri took consecutive second-place finishes at the Monaco round to take second place in the championship standings behind Zhou. [55]
Piastri retired from the first sprint race in Baku after a collision on the first lap, but finished second in the feature race. [56] He claimed pole position at Silverstone, [57] and took the lead of the championship after finishing sixth in the first sprint race. At the conclusion of the fourth round, he held the championship lead by five points over Zhou. [58] [59] At Monza, Piastri took his first feature win in the series which included a battle on lap 25 with Zhou, [60] and increased his championship lead with another pole and win at Sochi. [61] Piastri became the second driver that season after Jüri Vips to win two races on the same weekend, finishing first in Jeddah's second sprint race [62] and being in the lead at the time the feature race was aborted. [63] The Australian clinched the title with a podium in race one at Yas Marina, thus becoming the third driver to win the championship in their rookie season. [64] He capped off his season with a win in the feature race, his fourth in a row, which meant that Piastri had won six races, more than any other driver that season. [65]
With his championship, Piastri joined an illustrious company of Nico Rosberg, Lewis Hamilton, Nico Hülkenberg, Charles Leclerc, and George Russell, as the only drivers to win the GP2/F2 title in their rookie seasons. He also became just the fifth driver after Hamilton, Hülkenberg, Leclerc and Russell to win the GP3/F3 title, and then the GP2/F2 title the following year, and the first driver in history to win Formula Renault, Formula Three and Formula Two—or equivalent—championships in successive seasons. [66]
Piastri joined the Renault Sport Academy in January 2020. [67] [68] After winning the FIA Formula 3 Championship in 2020, he took part in his first Formula One test in October with the Renault F1 Team, driving the Renault R.S.18 at Bahrain International Circuit alongside fellow academy drivers Christian Lundgaard and Zhou Guanyu. [69] He remained part of the now-rebranded Alpine Academy in 2021 and drove the Alpine A521 in the post-season young drivers' test at Yas Marina Circuit in December. [70]
After his Formula 2 title victory, Piastri was appointed as Alpine F1 Team's reserve driver for the 2022 season. [71] He was also made available as a reserve driver for McLaren following an agreement between the two teams. [72] He took part in Alpine's testing sessions in the A521 throughout the season, including at the Circuit of the Americas, Losail International Circuit and Silverstone Circuit. [73] [74] [75] McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl later confirmed that Piastri had a private two day testing session in a previous-spec McLaren car at Circuit Paul Ricard the week before the São Paulo Grand Prix. [76] [77]
In June 2022, rumours emerged suggesting Piastri would drive for Williams in 2023 on loan from Alpine, who were initially expected to retain Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso. [78] However, in August, Alonso announced that he would leave the team to replace the retiring Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin. [79] [80] Alpine then announced that Piastri would replace Alonso in 2023, although the press release contained no quotes from Piastri himself. [81] Piastri immediately rejected Alpine's announcement via a post on Twitter, stating that he had not signed a contract with the team and that he would not be driving for them in 2023. [82] Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer followed up by criticising Piastri's actions and "integrity as a human being", saying that he expected loyalty from the former academy driver, and threatened to take the contract matters to court. [83] [84]
A hearing of the FIA's Contract Recognition Board (CRB) commenced on 29 August to determine whether Piastri was contracted to Alpine, or if he was free to join a different team for 2023. Had Alpine won the case, they could have obligated Piastri to fulfil his contract and race for the team in 2023, or sought a compensation fee for Piastri's services from any other interested teams. [85] [86] Prior to the Dutch Grand Prix, the CRB ruled against Alpine, with Piastri's move to McLaren confirmed shortly thereafter. [87] [88] In their final judgement, the CRB also revealed that Piastri had signed his McLaren contract almost two months earlier on 4 July – the day after the British Grand Prix. [89] This contract initially only guaranteed Piastri a reserve role for 2023, with an upgrade to a race seat dependent on McLaren agreeing a contract termination with Daniel Ricciardo – which they did on 24 August, shortly before the CRB hearing. [90] [91] Piastri said a "breakdown in trust" between him and Alpine was behind his decision to leave the Enstone-based team. [92]
Piastri raced for McLaren in 2023 alongside Lando Norris. [93] [94] Alpine agreed to end Piastri's contract early to allow Piastri to join McLaren in the post-season testing session immediately after the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. [95] In his first race, the Bahrain Grand Prix, he qualified 18th and was running in eighth place when an electrical issue forced his retirement. [96] He reached the third qualifying session (Q3) at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and qualified eighth, but first-lap contact with Pierre Gasly necessitated a front wing change and dropped Piastri outside the top 10. [97] His first points came at his first home race, the Australian Grand Prix, where he qualified 16th and finished eighth, aided by the retirements of eight drivers. [98] He reached Q3 again at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix but finished 11th, just over two seconds shy of 10th place. [99] [100] A "major failure" on his MCL60 produced a 19th-place finish at the Miami Grand Prix. [101] His second points finish of the season came at the Monaco Grand Prix with a 10th-place finish, but Piastri scored no points in the following three races, despite reaching Q3 at the Spanish and Austrian Grands Prix.
Upgrades brought to the MCL60 produced an improved showing at the British Grand Prix where Piastri qualified in a personal-best third behind Norris. [102] Piastri missed out on a maiden podium finish after being jumped during the pit stops by Lewis Hamilton, but he achieved his best career finish thus far in fourth place. [103] He qualified fourth at the Hungarian Grand Prix and ran in second place in the early laps, but dropped to fifth by the chequered flag. [104] He qualified second for the Belgian Grand Prix sprint, 0.011 seconds behind pole-sitter Max Verstappen. He gained the lead from Verstappen in the pits but was later overtaken after a safety car, finishing second. [105] On race day, however, Piastri retired at the first corner after colliding with Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr. [106] He qualified seventh for the Italian Grand Prix but contact from Lewis Hamilton forced a front wing change and relegated Piastri outside the points. [107] A red flag in qualifying resulted in a 17th-place start at the Singapore Grand Prix, [108] but Piastri recovered to score points in seventh place.
On 20 September, Piastri signed a contract extension to stay with McLaren until the end of 2026. [1] Days later, he qualified second for the Japanese Grand Prix – his first time at Suzuka Circuit – behind Max Verstappen and ahead of teammate Norris. [109] He finished the race in third behind Norris to secure his first podium finish in Formula One, becoming the first rookie to do so since Lance Stroll in 2017. This was also McLaren's first double podium finish since the 2021 Italian Grand Prix. [110] He followed this up by qualifying first for the Qatar Grand Prix sprint and holding off Verstappen to take victory. [111] He started sixth for the main race and improved to second place at the finish ahead of Norris, earning his second Grand Prix podium. [112] Damage from a collision with Esteban Ocon forced his retirement from the United States Grand Prix after starting 10th. [113] He started 10th again at the São Paulo Grand Prix, but damage from contact with debris caused him to finish two laps down in 14th. [114] He ended the season by qualifying 19th at the Las Vegas Grand Prix but recovering to 10th and setting the fastest lap of the race, then qualifying third and finishing sixth at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Piastri ended his debut season ninth in the World Drivers' Championship, scoring 97 points to Norris's 205. He was rated the seventh-best driver of the season in a poll of the ten Formula One team principals, [115] and Sky Sports praised his debut campaign as "very impressive" but added that his race pace and tyre management required improvement to match Norris. [116]
Piastri began the 2024 season by qualifying and finishing eighth at the Bahrain Grand Prix, [117] [118] followed by fourth-place finishes at the Saudi Arabian and Australian Grands Prix [119] [120] and further points at the Japanese and Chinese Grands Prix. [121] [122] At the Miami Grand Prix, he finished sixth in the sprint but 13th in the main race, won by teammate Norris, [123] following a collision with Carlos Sainz Jr. in a battle for second place. [124] [125] Piastri qualified second at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, but was demoted to fifth for impeding Kevin Magnussen [126] and went on to finish fourth. [127] He then qualified and finished second at the Monaco Grand Prix, [128] [129] taking his first podium of the season, and claimed further points at the Canadian and Spanish Grands Prix. At the Austrian Grand Prix, Piastri overtook Norris to finish second in the sprint, then benefited from a late collision between Norris and Verstappen to finish second in the main race, 1.9 seconds behind winner George Russell. Piastri ran as high as second place at the British Grand Prix after qualifying fifth, but lost positions when McLaren switched him to intermediate tyres one lap later than Norris and went on to finish fourth. [130]
After qualifying second behind Norris at the Hungarian Grand Prix, Piastri overtook his teammate at the first corner. He led the race until he was pitted after Norris, allowing Norris to undercut him, on the understanding that Norris would later relinquish the position. Norris did so with two laps remaining, allowing Piastri to take his maiden win and become the fifth Australian driver to win a Formula One Grand Prix. McLaren's strategy and subsequent team orders caused controversy as Norris had built a six-second led to Piastri; Norris commented that the result was "fair" and "honest", admitting that he lost the race to Piastri at the start. [131] Piastri qualified sixth for the Belgian Grand Prix and crossed the finish line third despite a slow pit stop. [132] He was then promoted to second place after George Russell's disqualification. [133] The result allowed him to take fourth place in the Drivers' Championship from Carlos Sainz Jr. [134] During the summer break, Piastri revealed that he had broken a rib during the first half of the season, caused by an improper seat fit. The injury had fully healed ahead of the Dutch Grand Prix, where he qualified third and finished fourth. [135]
Piastri qualified second for the Italian Grand Prix and gained the lead after overtaking Norris. Whereas McLaren chose a two-stop strategy, Ferrari's Charles Leclerc executed one-stop strategy to win the race, with Piastri unable to catch up and finishing second. [136] Piastri qualified second behind Leclerc at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, overtook the leader on lap 20 and went on to claim his second Formula One victory. With Norris in fourth, this was enough for McLaren to gain the Constructors' Championship lead for the first time since 2014. Piastri qualified fifth for the Singapore Grand Prix and gained two places to take his ninth career podium. Norris won the race, extending the team's championship lead. [137] Further points for Piastri came at the United States Grand Prix, where he finished fifth, and at the Mexico City Grand Prix, where he recovered from qualifying 17th to finish eighth. He qualified on pole for the sprint at the São Paulo Grand Prix, but was ordered by McLaren to cede the lead to Norris in the closing laps. [138] He finished eighth in the race after again relinquishing position to Norris and receiving a penalty for colliding with Liam Lawson. [139] With his tenth-placed finish at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Piastri became the fourth driver in history to complete every lap of a Formula One season. [140]
